The York Region Lions flag program is a great way to learn football fundamentals, while meeting new friends and getting outside! It's a great opportunity to find out why flag football is the fastest growing sport in Ontario. With a structured program featuring 5 on 5 or 7 on 7 competition formats, boys and girls will learn speed, passing and most importantly - fun!
Our flag football programs are non contact.

Sessions include skill development, learning plays, competition between groups. The first ten minutes are warm up, with 20 minutes of practice and 30 minutes of inter-age group games. York Region Lions coaches follow the YRFA Flag Program Book for 5 a side to ensure a smooth transition between age groups.
