What team should I register by child for flag football?

Our flag program consist of two divisions – 

Cat - Boys and Girls ages 5 & 6 year olds with little or no experience
Cub - Boys and Girls ages 6 with experience & 7 regardless of experience

If you are unsure what division your child belongs simply take your best guess. Our coaches will evaluate every flag player an ensure they are assigned to the proper division.

My child has a birthday during the season, what age are they considered?
A players age is determined by whatever age the player is on July 31 of that year. 

How much does flag football cost?
Registration fee for flag football is $50 per player. There is also a $50 family fee regardless of age, level of play or number of players.  This fee is paid once per year.  This fee is for the entire family not per player. If you register 2 children for flag you pay $50 x 2 plus a $50 family fee.

Are there any additional costs?
Parents are responsible for some equipment, please see below for this information. Flag players keep their jersey at the end of the season but must return game pants. If they are not, a present day cost will be placed on the account, and additional registration for that family cannot occur until equipment is returned or paid for.
