What kind of time commitment does flag football require?
There will be two weeks of practice time scheduled before the first games. Practice times are assigned by the league and organized by the coach and, like games, will last about an hour.
Teams will play two games each week during the season. Weekday games are held Tuesday-Friday and will start at 5:30, 6:30, or 7:30pm (older age groups typically start later).
Weekend games will start at 8:00am on Saturdays with the last games starting at noon.
Practice during the season is at the discretion of the coach.
