Why boys flag football?

Flag football teaches the same skills as tackle football — throwing, catching, route running, reading a defense — without the tackling. It is a great first sport for beginners and a sharp training ground for experienced players.

  • Non-contact, NFL FLAG rules
  • Mouth guards required, official flag belts provided on game day
  • Background-checked volunteer coaches
  • Equal playing time is the goal for every player at every game
