Flag Football

Our Flag Football program is offered in the fall and spring seasons for boys and girls.  It encourages healthy competition rather than rivalry, the value of participating over winning, and team building over individual glorification. This program has no tryouts and everyone is welcome. Thanks to the YMCA’s and Flag Football rules, kids participate in every game and receive equal playing time, regardless of skill level. The YMCA’s volunteer coaches will emphasize skill development and most importantly, having fun!  

Players will have fun while developing an appreciation for sports and physical activity. They will practice skills while learning sportsmanship and teamwork.

Summer participants should register based on the calendar grade of Fall 2023 to end of Summer 2024 school year.
