HYAA FLAG FOOTBALL AGES - 5 TO 14 (Grades K-8)

HYAA Flag Football Program Overview

Our vision is to help kids learn, enjoy, and excel at the game of flag football.

Our seasons are generally 10-12 weeks long (approx 8-10 games, weather permitting) and include a season ending tournament for all teams. Teams will practice once per week and play games one to times per week, usually on a weeknight and a Saturday. Registration begins in early July, practices start in early August, and games run from Sept-Oct/Nov.

HYAA Flag Football is organized with the following age brackets:

TEAM FORMATION

Parity is paramount to our mission and HYAA uses a player evaluation process (skills day and prior season coach’s evaluation) and then a draft to create teams. HYAA’s goal is to create a system of team parity, where teams are generally balanced. Parity creates exciting football and enhances the enjoyment of the players and spectators.
