Join School District 197 Youth Enrichment as we enter our third year offering a Middle School Girls Flag Football League! The primary objective of this program is to have fun!! The program has been designed to give girls an opportunity to learn the basics of football and develop an appreciation for the game of football. It is a great way to learn the skills of teamwork, sportsmanship, hand-eye coordination and communication. Flag Football is a NON-CONTACT sport. Flags are worn on a belt around the waist and pulled off for the “tackle”. Flags/belts, jerseys and shorts are provided. Mouthguards are required. Tennis shoes are required, cleats recommended. No experience is necessary and everyone will play. Coached by Ms. Amanda Mahlstedt & Amy Lombardi, FHMS Teachers Kids can take the activity bus home at 5:15pm or have a parent pick-up at the school at 5pm. Check activity bus routes HERE We hope to have enough players at both schools middle schools to scrimmage against each other and watch for information on possible games against other middle schools as Minnesota works to grow the Girl's Flag program.
