G · G1 International
Backing girls' flag football in Mexico, on the world stage.
G1 supports MX Flag Elite, one of Mexico's premier girls' flag football development organizations, and the athletes who compete for Mexico.
Chapter 01
Who MX Flag Elite are, and what the partnership is
MX Flag Elite is a Mexico-based organization and, in the academy's words, one of Mexico's premier girls' flag football organizations, dedicated to developing elite athletes and creating opportunities for young women to compete at the highest levels of the sport. It is its own organization. G1's role is to support it rather than to own or operate it, and the distinction is worth keeping straight.
The framing the academy uses for the partnership is building champions, creating opportunities, and representing Mexico on the world stage. What flows through it is what a well-resourced academy has and a growing programme needs: coaching structure, competitive pathways, and the experience of people who have organised athletes at a serious level.
MX Flag Elite describes itself as more than a competitive football programme, and as a pathway for ambitious athletes who dream of competing against the best. That is the part G1 is investing in, and it is consistent with how the academy talks about its own work in Dallas.

What it is meant to give the athletes
The stated outcomes are specific rather than vague. Build confidence through athletics. Develop leadership skills. Compete at elite levels. Create lifelong friendships. Experience international travel. Represent Mexico with pride. Six things, and only two of them are about football.
That order is deliberate and it matches how G1 operates at home. The academy's position is that every tournament is an opportunity to learn, grow and inspire the next generation of female athletes, which is the same argument it makes about a nine-year-old in a Dallas flag league: the competition is the vehicle, and the person is the point.
Girls' flag football is also, right now, one of the fastest-growing routes into the sport anywhere, with real international competition and a genuine pathway attached to it. An organization building that in Mexico is doing it while the ground is still being laid, which is precisely when support is worth the most.
Chapter 03
Why a Dallas academy runs an international programme at all
The academy's own answer is in its values line: it strives to cultivate diversity and brotherhood, building teams that look like heaven, while keeping God, love and community at the core of everything it does. A programme that says that and then operates only inside one Dallas zip code has not really said it.
Founder Jose Gamino's own background is the practical reason it works. He came up through FC Dallas Academy, Real Madrid's development program and IMG Academy, in a sport that is international by default, and has coached more than 500 athletes across a decade. Someone whose own development ran through Madrid does not find a cross-border partnership exotic.
For families in Dallas, the connection is more direct than it looks. An academy that thinks internationally is an academy that treats travel, unfamiliar opposition and representing something larger than a local league as normal parts of an athlete's development.
