About Lions Spring Flag
Flag is Fun!
The York Region Lions flag program is a great way to learn football fundamentals, while meeting new friends and getting outside! After a long winter of lockdowns, 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!
Non-Contact Programs
Our flag football programs are non contact.
Program Structure
Our program is operating an adjusted schedule of June 28th to July 31, 2021. Each age group will have two sessions per week (except for long weekend weeks) that are 1 hour long; usually M/W or T/TR. Sessions include skill development, learning plays, competition between groups. York Region Lions coaches follow the YRFA Flag Program Book to ensure a smooth transition between age groups.
