NFL PLAY 60 Super Bowl Challenge: South Florida

  The NFL, American Heart Association, The Miami Dolphins, and the South Florida Super Bowl Host Committee will join forces during Super Bowl XLIV to raise awareness about the importance of health and wellness for school-aged children. The NFL PLAY 60 Super Bowl Challenge encourages youth to be active for at least 60 minutes a day by challenging teachers and students across South Florida to get 60 minutes of exercise a day for 4 weeks, giving them a chance to win some great Pro Bowl and Super Bowl prizes!

 The NFL PLAY 60 Super Bowl Challenge includes resources to get students excited, engaged and active! It was developed to be turn-key, so schools can begin at any time of the year. To be eligible for prizes, teachers must register for materials here. Once they complete the Challenge, teachers must return the Classroom Scoreboard and completed contest entry form by December 14, 2009 to the NFL (address listed on the contest entry form). Good luck!
