HIU Athlete-First Weekend

Join Us NowTake Action Now

Built for HER. Powered by Community.

Empowerment Weekend

Built for Her. Powered by Community.

June 26-28 at deer valley high (Antioch, CA)

A three-day girls flag football experience built on three pillars:

Level Up & Shine

We are creating a platform where elite play and real purpose live in the same space — where athletes compete on a high-level stage while helping expand opportunity for the next generation of female athletes.

Our Impact

Raise $150,000 in one weekend to support Northern California nonprofits focused on girls athletics, academic support, and youth community programs.

This is more than a tournament.

It’s a weekend where competition drives impact.

What Makes Us Unique

 The HER is US Athlete-First Invitational was built around one guiding principle:


Put the athlete first.


Every detail of the weekend — from competition and mentorship to exposure and community engagement — is intentionally designed to elevate the experience for young female athletes.

More than 1,400 girls will participate in this first-of-its-kind weekend, with entry intentionally kept low-cost or free so that access — not financial barriers — determines who gets the opportunity to compete.


Because when access expands, opportunity follows.
