NFL FLAG FOOTBALL

Flag Football is an Olympic Sport in 2028 and the NFL is putting a lot of resources Worldwide for the promotion of the sport. Our school will be involved in this program which at this point will be targeted at our current year 4, year 5 and year 6 students. Students have highly enjoyed learning the skills involved in NFL and this will continue into the start of next term.

 

Our school has received details for the NSW State NFL Flagball Championships on Friday the 9th of August. The day is for Year 5 and 6 students only and we have been informed we can only send 1 mixed team of 10 players to this gala day. 

 

Our school may hire an NFL independent coach to select the 10 students based on a trial process. If your child would like to do the trial for the NFL team please fill out this Registration Form by Friday 26th July. The trial will take place during Week 2 of Term 3 with a date to be confirmed. If selected, parents are required to organise transport for their child to and from the ground.
