          Youth Passing Leagues       

 

The Passing League Program will provide an introduction to flag football that will teach the basics of team work, passing, catching, offense & defense. Players will participate in a football camp atmosphere during the first two weeks of the season. The remaining weeks will consist of a 30-minute practice followed by a 30-minute game. Field dimensions, game rules and strategy are carefully created to give your beginner athlete the ultimate learning experience.

Advancement Information

Age Chart  

    Equipment Information:

Junior-size rubber football: 8-9 & 10-11 age divisions

Intermediate-size rubber football: 12-13 & 14-15 age divisions

2 inch kicking tee will be utilized.

Scoring Information:

1. Each participant will be allowed one punt, one pass, and one placekick as part of his/her competition.

2. Scores are based on both distance and accuracy. Example: If a participant passes the ball 100 feet, but the ball lands 30 feet to the right of the measuring tape, the final score would be 100 - 30 = 70. Scores will be based on exact feet and inches (no partial inches—round to nearest inch). No participant will receive a negative score; instead their score will be “0.”

3. A participant’s final score is his/her cumulative total for the three individual events. Example: If participant scores (40) for punting, (60) for passing, and (22) for kicking, the participant’s final score is 122.

4. If a participant goes over the line prior to or before releasing or making contact with the ball, he/she will be penalized five (5) feet. Exception: In kicking, a participant may go over the line without penalty provided the tee is placed on or behind the line.

5. There is no violation if the kicking tee is kicked with the football during the kicking event.

6. Scores will be determined from where a participant’s punt/pass/kick first makes contact with the ground. Bounces or rolls do not add to the score.

7. If a participant tries to punt, pass, or kick and misses the ball completely, it DOES NOT count as an attempt and another attempt is allowed.
