FLAG FOOTBALL
Fast. Skillful. Social. Competitive.
Flag Football is a fast-paced, non-contact version of American Football that focuses on speed, agility, passing, catching, strategy and teamwork.
Instead of tackling, defenders remove a flag from the ball carrier to end the play. With less equipment and no tackling, Flag Football provides an accessible way for people to experience American Football and enjoy the game.
Flag Football can be played competitively, recreationally or socially, making it a sport for people of different ages, backgrounds and experience levels.

FLAG FOOTBALL BEYOND
