ThePregame : Fatherhood edition (KC)

Champions prepare before game day.

Pull up for The Pregame: Fatherhood Edition, hosted by Fathers Assisting Mothers Inc. (F.A.M.) in collaboration with Dope Black Dads KCK. This men-only game night brings March Madness energy to birth prep helping dads get ready for pregnancy, labor & delivery, and postpartum/newborn care in a fun, practical, culturally relevant way. Sponsored by Uzazi Village.

This is not a traditional parenting class.

Think March Madness / NCAA Tournament energy with:

• Team trivia
• A live scoreboard/leaderboard
• Prizes + giveaways
• “Ask-the-Analyst” timeouts with experts (doula + midwife/OBGYN)
• Real talk and practical tools dads can use immediately

What to Expect

You’ll be placed at a table team or you can bring your own team (2-4 men per team). Each team will choose a captain to submit answers on a phone, while the team talks through questions together. Points stack all night no one gets eliminated.

Topics Covered

• Pregnancy basics and how to support your partner
• Labor & delivery: comfort measures, advocacy, and what to expect
• Postpartum and newborn care: how dads show up strong after birth

Who Should Attend

• Expectant fathers (primary audience)
• New dads and future dads
• Men who want to be better prepared to support their family
