The Golden Circuit

A Field & Finish Series

Presented by Jaggerty Sports Management | Powered by H.A.P.L.

The Golden Circuit is a fall community sports series designed to bring athletes, families, schools, businesses, and local supporters together through movement, competition, and connection.

Each series weekend features a Saturday evening 5K followed by a Sunday morning flag football tournament, creating a full weekend of fitness, fun, and community energy. The 5K welcomes runners, walkers, families, youth athletes, and first-time participants, while the flag football tournament gives teams the opportunity to compete, build camaraderie, and represent their school, business, gym, organization, or community.

Rooted in H.A.P.L.’s mission to support holistic athlete development, The Golden Circuit blends physical performance, community wellness, and accessible competition. Each stop is designed to celebrate movement, teamwork, school spirit, local pride, and the joy of staying active together.

The series begins in August and continues through the fall, leading into the season finale: The Turkey Bowl, where teams and community members gather for a championship-style celebration near Thanksgiving.

Whether you are crossing the finish line, taking the field, cheering from the sidelines, volunteering, sponsoring, or vending, The Golden Circuit is built to create a new fall sports tradition for Washtenaw County and beyond.

Run the finish. Take the field. Join the circuit.
