About Youth Flag Football:
Flag football has all the fitness and social benefits of a rigorous team sport, with far less injury risk than a contact sport.
The Associated Press reports “The sport is growing for all kinds of reasons: Players don’t need a lot of protective equipment, so it’s cheaper and easier to field a team; and kids can play whether they are big or small.”  Additional rules reduce the chances of inadvertant contact.  These include stopping play when there is a fumble or interception.

Sportsmanship is an aspiration or attitude that a sport or activity will be enjoyed with proper consideration for fairness, ethics, respect, and a sense of fellowship with one's competitors.
*Full Participation refers to giving every child the opportunity to play every position with the goal of letting them achieve some measure of success.
We meet once a week.  There are no practices.
