Flag Football 5-6 Information
Ages: 5 & 6 Weight Limit: N/A
Age Cut-Off Date: July 31st

Rowland Youth Football is committed to the development of our sport throughout our community. This commitment starts with out flag football program. Our flag program was established as a way to teach our youngest players (age 5, 6 7 & 8) the basic rules, skills and playing fundamentals of our sport, while limiting the amount of contact involved.

ABOUT PRACTICE
Flag teams are allowed to start practice no sooner than August 1st. Flag practices are limited to 2 hours in duration, and are limited to 4 practices a week before Labor Day. Practices change to three 1.5 hour sessions per week after Labor Day for the rest of the season.

First game of the season typical starts on or before Labor Day weekend.

Rowland Youth Football provides each team with footballs; flag belts, pants and numbered game jerseys (players keep their jersey). Participants provide their own cleats, athletic supporter and mouthpiece. Protective equipment and hats are prohibited.

All participants must have a physical for the current year before being allowed to practice or play a game.

GET IN INVOLVED
Since flag football is an entry-level program, most of the coaches and cheer instructors are parents of children on the team. This is a great opportunity for you to get involved on the ground floor of what we hope will be a long and rewarding football experience for your child.

We would like to encourage you to “get involved” and help make this a positive experience for the participants. Please fell free to contact us (rowlandyouthfootball@gmail.com) for more information on how you can get involved.
