As part of the CDMFA's Spring Flag Football League, players new and old will be introduced to the sport of Flag Football. Players focus on footwork, hand-eye coordination, catching, throwing, and overall football techniques. During practices, athletes will learn football fundamentals, like movement, terminology, and routes, while also learning teamwork. By playing on a smaller field in a 5 a-side format, players will get more opportunities to touch the football and be involved in the game.
Gameplay: 5-a-side football on a modified field.
Season: April to the beginning of June, with no games on the May Long Weekend
Practices: Players practice two times per week, days TBA
Games: Two games played on Saturday or Sunday, games will be scheduled back to back. Games are played at the Edmonton Flag Football Association Fields.
