Remember the Titans (2000)
A heartwarming story about a football team coming together in a time of racism and desegregation. It’s a Disney movie so we get the heartwarming musical number, left-side strong-side, and just enough drama to make it a classic.
We are Marshall (2006)
A true story about the Marshall football team of 1971 and their emotional journey after 37 members of the 1970 team died in a tragic plane crash. This is one of those football as a life lesson and community building block movies. Matthew McConaughey is the inspiring coach that helps the team believe.
The Longest Yard (1974)
Back to an older movie, do yourself a favor and watch the original “The Longest Yard” not the more recent one with Adam Sandler. Burt Reynolds in all his glory leads a team of prison inmates in a game against the evil guards.
