Nike and the NFL aim to bring girls flag football to every high school in America. It might be the best hope to shore up interest in the sport.

Last year Nike Inc . reached out to two high school football powerhouses in Tampa, Fla., and sent personalized bags for each athlete stuffed with free jerseys, cleats, socks and gloves. The shipment to Matt Hernandez, coach of the Alonso High Ravens, was so large that “the FedEx guy asked if it was a fraud-type situation because so many boxes were coming to a residential house.”

As of Monday morning it had 3.5 million views on YouTube.
