Join over 1000 kids and 110+ teams playing FNL flag football this fall!  We are SOLD OUT, but if you want to avoid the waitlist and be guaranteed team placement... we have a few spots open that we are holding for volunteers!  Please let us know if you or someone you know is willing to help coach our kids; (i.e. parent/uncle/aunt/older-sibling/neighbor or friend)  It's only 1 practice a week and our coaches select the day/time for practice that works best for them.  No coaching experience is required and training is provided! All games are played locally on Friday nights and a few Sundays. If you have a coach, then we may have a spot for your child to join the fun at FNL this Fall!
