REGISTRATION
Registration for Spring Flag Football is open as of January 6, 2023.
Regular Registration for Spring Flag Football closes at midnight on February 27, 2023.
PRACTICES, GAMES AND TOURNAMENT
Practices will be held once a week, and are scheduled on Tuesdays and Thursdays, beginning at 5:00pm and ending around 6:40pm. Practices are 40 minutes in duration. Practices will tentatively begin on or around April 12, 2023, and will be held at Cedar Elementary.
Games will be played on Wednesdays and Sundays. Games on Wednesdays will begin at 5:00pm, and the final game of the evening will start around 6:00pm. Sunday games begin at 2:00pm, with the final game of the evening beginning at 5:00pm. Games are 40 minutes in duration. Games are held at Cedar Elementary.
Not all teams will be scheduled with games every weeknight, but teams are encouraged to take advantage of this time for a team practice, as we will have fields available. There may also be an opportunity for a player to be picked up for games with another team if they are no players for their roster.
While the league's primary goal is to ensure our youth athletes have fun, we also want to encourage proper sportsmanship through learning how to win and lose. Therefore, a single elimination tournament will be played at the end of the season for each league to determine the League Champion!
EVALUATIONS
There are no formal evaluations for Spring Flag Football. Our goal is to utilize the first Academy style practice to best roster each team for a fun and competitive season.
COACHING
We are always looking for coaches! If you didn't note in your child's registration that you'd like to coach, you can log back into your account and volunteer to be a Head Coach or Assistant Coach, utilizing the Volunteer tab.
Meet the Coaches Night - Tentatively scheduled for Wednesday, April 5, 2023.
