Event overview

Join the Misison Continues- Houston 2nd service platoon for a night out at DelMar Stadium for the 2017 WWAFT vs the NFL Texas' Alumni football game. The non profit organization Operation Warrior Wishes asked that we come in full force, so bring your significant other and the kids for a free sporting event. The Wounded Warrior Amputee Football Team looks to put its unbeaten, 15-0, record against the NFL Alumni to the test. The game will be played on Wednesday, February 1 (from 6-8 PM), prior to Super Bowl 51, at Delmar Stadium in Houston (2020 Mangum Rd). From Roger Staubach to Rocky Bleier, Dan Pastorini to Ron Jaworski, Jack Youngblood, Charles Haley, Sam Huff, Randy White, Jerry Kramer, Dave Robinson, Daryl Johnston, William Floyd, Bill Romanowski, more than 400 NFL stars, along with Snoop Dogg, Brian Kilmeade, Kenny Mayne & Sal Paolantonio, have all participated in these tributes and will do so again in Houston. The Wounded Warrior Amputee Football Team’s (WWAFT) mission is to raise awareness and support for our wounded warriors and their families. The team is made of up service members who have served and are now using a prosthetic device to engage in everyday life activities. By showcasing our team on the football field, the WWAFT seeks to inspire our fans and highlight the perseverance of our service members (both active and former) who continue to face life’s challenges without excuses. Hope to see you all there!
