Originally an in-school program, Reebok NFL/CFL Flag Football has grown to become a community based core recreation program. Flag League is available across Canada, and each year introduces thousands of boys and girls to the fundamentals of football. These fundamentals - running, throwing and defense - are the basis of the easy to learn NFL/CFL Flag Football rules.
Flag Kits, consisting of 2 balls, 12 flag belts, bean bags and cones, jerseys for each player and coaching guides are available 'at cost' to Flag Leagues through our partners at Football Canada.
Participating teams and leagues can also enter provincial tournaments, where they have a chance to advance to national and world championship tournaments.
Reebok NFL/CFL Flag Football is a not-for-profit program. Its core principles are accessibility, fun, and creating enthusiasm for the sport of football.
