    Ep. 10 Building a Dynasty the Right Way/Jason Klam/Texas Fury

    In Episode 10 of Flags on Fire, I sit down with Jason Klam, co-founder of Texas Fury — widely regarded as the first premier girls-only flag football club in the country. Texas Fury has helped shape the modern landscape of girls flag football, producing elite athletes, multiple Team USA players, and helping grow the sport long before most people saw its potential. But what makes the organization stand out isn’t just the wins. Jason shares how Texas Fury was built around character, leadership, accountability, and doing things the right way in a club sports world that often loses sight of those values. We also dive into the role his wife played as the backbone of the organization, the journey of his daughter Ashley Klam becoming one of the faces of Team USA women’s flag football, and what it takes to build a culture that consistently develops high-level athletes and people. This episode is a deep look into the foundation of one of the most respected organizations in the sport and the bigger movement pushing women’s flag football toward the Olympics and beyond. #FlagsOnFire#GirlsFlagFootball#WomensFlagFootball#TexasFury#FlagFootball#TeamUSA#OlympicFlagFootball#YouthFlagFootball#FootballCulture#WomenInSports#FlagFootballLife#AshleyKlam#CoachLeadership#USAFootball#LA2028
