JW presents Flag Football “UNDER THE LIGHTS” at Fletcher’s Field. YES!! Fletcher’s Night Football is BACK!!
For those that used to play know how much fun it was. For those teams that have never played “Under the Lights”, you are in for a treat.
I will have an A/B Division and a B/C Division depending on participation. Now, if I don’t enough teams to separate into two (2) then we will have one big Division. Games will be played on Tuesday nights and Thursday nights. If I get more than 12 teams then we will play on Wednesdays as well. 1st game will start at 7:00pm.
The cost for the league will be $450.00 (I know but the lights are an additional cost per game added to the normal cost for the field). Referee fee will be $45 per game per team. The League will be USFTL Sanctioned. We will have Playoffs and an All Star Game. Top 4 Teams will make the Playoffs. Eight (8) Game Season. Trophies awarded to the Winner(s) and Runner-Up(s).
General Rules we will follow:
We will follow recognized USFTL Rules for game play. Fighting will be prohibited. 1 fight and you will be BANNED from the league – NO EXCEPTIONS!!! Riverdale Police have already said the park will be closed if fights take place. I will NOT lose the permit for stupidity!!
We will have NO Kickoffs – Drives start at the offensive teams 25 Yard line. Field Goals and extra points are scored the same as in all USFTL games.
Games will consist of two 22 minute halves with a running clock. Halftimes will be Two (2) Minutes. Teams will have 2 timeouts per half – not 3. Timeouts will last 30-45 seconds so that games stay on time.
There will be NO Overtimes for the regular season. We will have OT for the playoffs as a winner would need to be determined.
Each team will receive a packet upon registering for the league that will contain more information.
To register call me (JW) at (301) 787-1087 or e-mail me at jwwilljr@comcast.net .
JW - Football Under the Lights!!

| That should be real nice. I have not played at Fletcher's field in damn near 10 years. Those were the good old days. Good luck with that JW. No kickoffs?? Isn't special teams apart of the game? I know this is usually done to speed the game up so players can play more of the game but that’s part of football. In addition, what if a team is down 12 and score a TD that puts them down 6 with a 2 mins left. The game is over if they have no time outs. The kickoff and return to the 20 allows that team to have life and fantastic finishes. Which is a great part of football. You may want to re think that at least have kickoffs in the final 2 mins.

| Sloooooooooow Down J Dub..."Under the Lights" is copyrighted to the Cutters Football Club-U Dig. LMAO.
The best news yet 4 sure. Fletchers "Under the Lights" will be off the chain.
To this day the greatest victory for the Cutters in my humble opinion was beating New Breed (the best Team of all time in my book) at Fletchers to win the PG County Touch Title (New Breed had been Champions 10 years running).
If you get the true top 8 teams in all of the Metropolitan area at Fletchers you will see the benefits come Nationals. Every game will be a hard hitting high level of skill, brains, and brawn!!!
Good Luck!
