RYFA Flag Football aims to provide a fun, age-appropriate, learning environment where kids can play non-contact football, regardless of skill level. While the focus will be on the passing elements of the game (QB/C exchange, proper route running, proper throwing form, pass defense, and timing), the goal of the program is to give all kids a chance to throw and catch the ball, regardless of positions they may play in the fall program.
This program is affiliated with the NFL Flag program. It is open to all boys and girls from Kindergarten through 8th grades.
Based on our large registration numbers we are unable to accept any late registrations at this time. If you missed the deadline and have a child that wants to play, we can place you on a wait list if a spot opens up due to a cancellation.

Spring Flag Football league is held on Sunday afternoons. (No football is held on Memorial Weekend) These are the dates for the 2024 Spring Flag Football Season:
Spring weather can be unpredictable, that's why we always schedule one extra Sunday into the RYFA flag football schedule. If one session is cancelled, the session will not be made up. If more than one session is cancelled, we will hold a make-up session for those additional cancelled sessions.
All games will be played on Sunday afternoons at the RYFA Complex. The finalized times for the 2024 schedule are as follows:
Team assignments and schedule information will be available once registration closes and the teams have been rostered.
There will be a short practice held prior to games being played on Sundays. There will be no additional practices held outside of your scheduled Sunday session for our recreational teams. Teams that are part of our competitive league may have additional practices outside of the Sunday game times if the coach chooses to do so.
The flags and jerseys will be provided by RYFA. Participants should wear athletic shoes or cleats and bring a water bottle to stay hydrated on game day.
