About

The FCS Bowl, presented by Team No Sleep Sports, is a premier annual post-season college football all-star game featuring the top players from NCAA FCS, D2, D3, and NAIA programs. Now entering its next era, the FCS Bowl provides a national platform for small-school athletes to showcase their talent directly in front of NFL, CFL, and XFL scouts.

Originally founded by Michael Quartey, Esq., the FCS Bowl has become one of the nation’s most respected non-FBS all-star events, helping hundreds of players earn professional opportunities. Today, the event continues under the leadership of Team No Sleep Sports President Preston Quartey, who remains committed to expanding exposure for small-school athletes.

Each December, players travel from across the country—Texas, Arkansas, Oregon, Colorado, Michigan, Utah, the Carolinas, and beyond—to participate in National Bowl Weekend. Practices are held in Orlando, Florida, followed by the official FCS Bowl game in Daytona Beach at Daytona Stadium.

The event is coached by professional and collegiate-level coaches, giving athletes high-quality instruction and real-time evaluation. Over the years, scouts from nearly all 32 NFL teams have attended either in person or through distributed film review, with past representation from organizations such as the Green Bay Packers, Miami Dolphins, Atlanta Falcons, Kansas City Chiefs, Chicago Bears, Philadelphia Eagles, San Francisco 49ers, and others.

The FCS Bowl is uniquely dedicated to non-FBS players, making it one of the only all-star platforms focused specifically on athletes from smaller programs. Its consistent growth, sponsor support, and strong scout turnout have solidified its reputation as a crucial pathway to the professional level.

We invite you to be part of National Bowl Weekend—whether playing, cheering, coaching, or supporting.
Team No Sleep Sports is proud to continue this longstanding tradition of giving smaller-college athletes a real chance to play BIG TIME FOOTBALL.
