League Basics
Advantage Flag League Football is intended to be Fun and Competitive.
We play a 6 on 6 game for 4 Quarters.
In this game, the offensive team plays for a first down at midfield and a touchdown in the end zone.
Running and passing plays are allowed, although there are “no running zones” at midfield and near each goal line.
The defensive team covers receivers, rushes the passer and grabs flags to make “tackles”.
The game is a
“non-contact”
sport which emphasizes good footwork, balance and hand-eye coordination.
