SBYS is introducing the NEW FLEX Football League this Fall for grades Pre-K to 6th- Registration is now OPEN!
What is FLEX Football?
FLEX bridges the gap between flag and tackle football game.
Game play 9v9 format with 3 o-line, 2 d-lineman blocking and pass rush allowed, 2 hand touch to down a player, true football IQ to be learned as the scheme directly correlated to the tackle game. The rules allowed all necessary fundamentals to be developed but protected the head from trauma. Lastly, with the inclusion of soft-shell gear, participants received that real football feel and coaches have the ability to teach the correct technique.
