Varsity Flag is excited to announce that registration is now open for the area’s newest premier youth flag football league.
The league welcomes athletes of all skill and experience levels, ages 3-5 for junior varsity and 6-14, with both boys’ and girls’ divisions open for enrollment. Varsity Flag’s game plan is to leave it all on the field and raise the bar in youth sports by providing a premier, community-centric youth sports league that emphasizes elite character building.
Varsity Flag founded its youth flag football league as a way to help future leaders grow through team sports.
Aside from having fun out on the field, young athletes will learn indispensable skills they can apply later in life. Alongside a commitment to the fundamentals, Varsity Flag’s mission focuses on teamwork, friendship and character building—all within a safe and inclusive environment.
Varsity Flag is a no-contact league, reducing the potential for injury and increasing the potential for fun! The league is player-centric, allowing kids to team up with friends or meet new people through an assigned team.
“We’re really excited about the league we’re building: one that’s dedicated to providing better service, better facilities, top tier parent communication and proactive scheduling,” said League Commissioner and co-founder, Dave Kramer. “Coaches will give players every opportunity to get off the bench and onto the field, and Varsity Flag prioritizes personal growth for every child by developing their skills in the sport. This new flag football league will help kids feel empowered, supported and included.”
Through partnerships with some of Long Island’s top camps—including Coleman Country Day Camp and Crestwood Country Day Camp—players will gain private access to pristine football fields where they’ll play each week. In addition, the league will provide team photos and an on-site videographer, to help capture the action.
Varsity Flag promises white-glove communication with players and their families. The league keeps everyone up to date with notifications via text, email, website and the league’s mobile app. It’s the only youth flag football league on Long Island that posts its full schedule before the season begins!
A 2022 study found that flag football was the fastest-growing youth sport in America. Varsity Flag’s new youth flag football league is premiering at a time when demand is higher than ever as parents and players seek an alternative to traditional impact football.
Registration is currently open for the Fall 2022 season, which kicks off in September. Parents can visit the league’s website to register their kids and discover more information.
