What Is Flag Football?

Flag football is a fast-paced, non-contact version of football that’s perfect for youth athletes learning the game. Most leagues play 7-on-7, with a typical offensive setup including:

3 offensive linemen
1 quarterback
2 wide receivers and 1 running back or 1 wide receiver and 2 running backs

In 7-on-7 formats, even the center can run a route—adding creativity to play design. Instead of tackling, defenders pull flags from the ball carrier’s belt, making agility and spacing key.
