Hey folks, if you've got kids who are itching to play some flag football, you should definitely check out the RISE Flag Football League here in Winchester! This season kicks off at Whittier Park, a fantastic local venue at 900 Whittier Park Drive. Running from September through November, it’s a great way for kids from kindergarten through middle school to have fun, stay active, and meet friends. With divisions set by grade, including a special girls-only middle school group, we cover everyone! Games are in a 6v6 format on compact fields, meaning lots of action and just enough space for teamwork and strategy to shine. Teams have 8-10 players, ensuring every child gets a chance to play. Plus, practices happen right on game day, which is perfect for those balancing other sports or activities. No stress about tryouts; teams are formed based on friend or coach requests—and we welcome volunteer parents as coaches. With a six to eight-game season, including playoffs, it's a fantastic setup for your young athlete. Don't miss it!
