NFL FLAG is the official youth flag football program backed by the NFL, designed to make the sport more accessible and fun for kids of all ages and skill levels. With support from current and former professional players, this program helps leagues across the country create safe, welcoming spaces to play.

​

As the largest flag football league in the U.S., NFL FLAG gives young athletes the chance to learn the game, build confidence, and wear official NFL gear, just like the pros. It’s an exciting first step into football that focuses on teamwork, skill development, and fun above all else.

​

Flag football isn’t just fun, it’s a fantastic way to prepare for tackle football down the road. By learning core skills like throwing, catching, running routes, and understanding formations, players develop strong fundamentals that can transfer directly to the tackle game later on.

Starting with flag football gives kids the confidence to learn the game safely, focus on technique, and build the athletic foundation needed for success at higher levels, all while enjoying a low-pressure, positive experience.

​

Programs are available for ages 4 to 17, with co-ed options and a focus on teaching the fundamentals in a supportive, fun setting. Join the movement and experience the excitement of flag football with us.
