5U & 6U FLAG FOOTABLL

**PROGRAM OVERVIEW** 

Youth Flag Football serves as a delightful, safe, and non-contact introduction to the game for our youngest athletes. Kids aged 5 and 6 will explore the fundamentals of passing, catching, route running, and teamwork in an engaging flag format, laying the groundwork for a lifelong passion for the sport.

**AGE ELIGIBILITY** 

Participants must be 5 or 6 years old to join Youth Flag Football. Age eligibility is based on the child’s age as of September 1st of that season. Children who turn 7 on or before August 31st of the current season are ineligible for flag football and will transition to the 7U Tackle Football division. For instance, a child celebrating their 7th birthday on August 30th will be placed in 7U Tackle Football rather than Youth Flag Football.
