MIDLAND REC DIVISION

MRD (Midland Rec Division) is a school-based youth athletics program bringing Flag Football and Cheer directly into Midland elementary schools. Designed for students in 1st through 6th grade, MRD creates a structured, inclusive environment where athletes compete alongside classmates while building teamwork, confidence, and school pride.

​

MRD offers age-appropriate Flag Football formats—including 9v9 for 1st & 2nd graders and 7on7 for 3rd through 6th graders—along with a unified Cheer program that supports athletic development and school spirit. Beyond competition, MRD emphasizes growth off the field by promoting accountability in the classroom and introducing character development through the 3C’s program for 5th and 6th graders.

​

This initiative is made possible through the generous support of the Scharbauer Foundation, RoundUp Inc, and the Pow5r Sports League, whose commitment to youth development helps strengthen students, schools, and the Midland, TX community.
