NFL Flag Football
The foundation of youth sports is more than just learning the fundamentals. It’s about being part of a team and, most importantly, having fun. NFL FLAG is designed to give boys and girls of all abilities a chance to learn, play—and have a blast doing it.
No Contact
NFL FLAG leagues are no contact so boys and girls of all ages and skill levels can learn to play—and have tons of fun.
Backed by the NFL
NFL FLAG is the largest flag football league in North America, and the only league where players can wear official NFL gear.
Improve Your Game
Flag football is the perfect introduction to football fundamentals and a great opportunity for tackle athletes to refine their technique in the offseason.
