Opening day meet your team at a predetermined spot outside of the field 15 minutes before your session. Please bring flags and wear team Jerseys.
We will have 4 or 5 stations where the coaches and players will learn different football skills. Every 10 minutes a whistle will blow and the team and coaches will move to the next station.
Each session will begin and end with a meeting in the middle of the field, we hope to have some BC Lions ( Thanks Amar Doman) players talk to the kids with some motivational messages.
Our Station Captains will give all players a quick 5 minute warm up, new coaches this is something you should watch and implement in your practices.
Players should have shorts with no pockets, moulded football cleats is the preferred footwear but running shoes ( dry days) and soccer cleats are okay. Mouth guards aren't mandatory but recommended. Players should have access to their own water via water bottles. Players return footballs and flags to the coaches after each game and practice. Players keep their Jerseys and big thanks to Kyle and Janelle Washington and the Washington Kids foundation for that. Most important is have fun and hope it is a very positive experience for everyone.
From Wayne, Lisa, Jen, Jake, Giancarlo and our 80 refs we thank you for being part of our league.
Cheers and let the season begin. Hope 2024 flag football is a good one for everyone.
