Dear Mo Steel Team Member,
The MARJCC Athletic Department welcomes you to the Mo Steel Family. This is our 15th season. Mo
Steel has become the gold standard for traveling flag football teams world-wide. Mo Steel has won
eight NFL National Championships in our history.
Congratulations on being selected onto the 2014-2015 Mo Steel Football Team. You have been
selected to this team for two reasons: Your skills and athleticism excel in football & we feel that you
have potential to grow as a player physically, mentally and emotionally.
Now that you have been selected, it is up to you, the player, to get the most out of this experience.
Playing for this team is hard work. Practices are mandatory and you must be in attendance at the
beginning of each session. No tardiness is accepted. Every effort should be made to complete
homework prior to practice so that you may fully concentrate on football. As a player on Mo Steel, you
must understand that this is a major responsibility. Poor performance in school, disrespectful behavior
to your family, teachers, teammates and/or coaches may result in dismissal from the team.
The value of “team” is strong. It is being part of a group that trains and works together to achieve a
common goal. To ensure the integrity and history of our program, we will strive to work as one unit,
respect one another and not engage in disrespectful or un-sportsmanlike behavior. We will give
maximum effort every time we meet.
Welcome to the MO STEEL family and I wish you luck and look forward to
a fun and exciting year.
Yossi Behar, Mo Steel Hall of Fame Class of 2006, Mo Steel Head Coach
