Flag Football

Flag Football is a non-contact version of American Football that can be played by anyone. The pulling of a player's tag simulates a tackle and stops the attack.

It is a 5-a-side game, where one team starts on offense and the other on defense. Each team then takes turns to attack with the aim being to move the ball into the opponent's end zone to score points.      

The offense has 4 attempts to reach the halfway line, if they reach the halfway line, they then have 4 more attempts to reach the endzone and score a touchdown.  

Touchdown = 6 points 

Conversion = either 1 or 2 points 

It’s a very tactical game and welcomes players of all genders, experience and fitness levels!
