We compliment Fall tackle football with flag football in the Spring to encourage players to continue honing their skills and building friendships in the off-season. Flag football is a great way to introduce your athlete to competitive football, without physical contact. Your athlete will learn the basics of the game, like:
- Understanding field terminology—the line of scrimmage end zone, 50-yard line, what is a first down, etc.
- Key positions and the role of those positions
- How to snap a football and hold it snuggly while running with it
- How to pass and catch a football
- What are passing routes and how to run them effectively
- How to take effective angles to take to stop a runner on defense
- Practicing good sportsmanship and how to be reliable teammate
We play through the i9 flag football league at Redmond High School. Our goal is to field three teams each season:
