Edwardsville YMCA NFL Flag Football (Fall 2026)

For our second year, the Edwardsville YMCA is proud to bring back NFL FLAG Football! After an incredible first season, this nationally recognized, non-contact program returns with the same energy – giving kids a safe, fast-paced, and inclusive way to experience the game. With official NFL team jerseys, a 6v6 format, and a focus on skill development, teamwork, and fun, NFL FLAG is the perfect place for young athletes to build confidence and grow. Whether your child is brand new to football or already loves the game, this is their chance to get on the field and play like the pros!

Each player will receive a sublimated NFL Flag Jersey and NFL Flag set with their registration. Mouth guards are required for every game!

Boys and Girls are welcome! Players will be grouped into the following divisions:

2nd/3rd Grade

4th/5th Grade

6th–8th Grade

Registration closes August 16th  – NO late registrations will be accepted, so don’t miss your chance to be part of our second-ever season of NFL FLAG at the Y!

The Edwardsville YMCA depends on parents and volunteers to make our sports leagues possible. Please consider coaching your child’s team!
