Girls flag football takes center stage on Episode 118 of South Bay Sports Radio as Redondo Union coach Jake Jimenez joins Nick Ingram to talk about the continued growth of the sport and the Sea Hawks’ 2026 season.

Jimenez reflects on just how far girls flag football has come over the past five years, from the early stages of building programs to becoming a varsity sport with an expanding national and international presence.

The conversation then turns to Redondo Union and what has helped the Sea Hawks continue to develop. Jimenez discusses the importance of establishing the right team culture, building confidence and using film study to help his players recognize what opponents are trying to do.

He also breaks down what Redondo has learned from its losses, Blair Nolen’s growth as a leader and quarterback, and a Sea Hawks defense that continues to impress him with its vision and ability to read the field. Jimenez also talks about developing younger players, the value of multi-sport athletes and the responsibility this generation has to help grow the game for the players coming behind them.

From there, Nick turns the attention back to the gridiron with a look at the Daily Breeze South Bay Top 10 and the biggest storylines heading into another important week of high school football.
