Brothers on a Mission: Empowering Women in Sports with Opportunities

The Buffalo Yetis, a professional women’s tackle football team in Western New York, are making waves in the community with their passion and dedication to the sport. Co-founders Jeronica and Julius Davis are on a mission to bring a professional tackle football team to Buffalo, providing opportunities for women to excel in the sport.

With a strong belief in the mental and physical benefits of football, the Davis brothers are determined to pave the way for aspiring female athletes in the region. They see the growing recognition of flag football in high school programs as a stepping stone towards achieving their goal of establishing a successful women’s football team in Buffalo.

Despite facing challenges such as fundraising and league affiliation, the Davis brothers are committed to making the Buffalo Yetis a reality. They have already garnered interest from potential players and female staff, including coaches, trainers, and medical personnel.

Reflecting on the legacy of the Buffalo All-Stars team from the 1970s, Jeronica and Julius are inspired to build upon the foundation laid by their predecessors. They envision a future where women’s tackle football in Buffalo reaches the same level of popularity and competition as the WNBA.

As they work towards securing funding and municipal support, the Davis brothers remain optimistic about the future of women’s football in Western New York. With their determination and passion, the Buffalo Yetis are poised to make a lasting impact on the community and inspire a new generation of female athletes.
