Welcome to SMART Sports NFL Flag Football! This is where passion for flag football meets community spirit! Founded in 2021, we are a dedicated youth flag football organization committed to fostering a love for the game while promoting teamwork, sportsmanship and physical and mental wellness. Our mission is to provide a safe, inclusive, and fun environment where young athletes of all skill levels can develop their abilities, build lasting friendships, and grow both on and off the field.
We believe in the power of sports to positively impact lives. Our programs are designed to cater to school age children, offering a range of activities from introductory clinics for beginners to competitive leagues for more experienced players. Our certified coaches and volunteers are passionate about mentoring young athletes, emphasizing the importance of respect, discipline, and fair play.
Our main league season is currently a Spring season in Washington, DC - the Nation's Capital. We partner with DPR (the Department of Parks and Recreation) and pride ourselves on our well-organized and professionally managed events, ensuring that every participant enjoys a rewarding experience. In addition to regular season games, we host various events, clinics, and skills camps, and community events throughout the year, fostering a strong sense of camaraderie and community involvement.
We are more than just a sports organization; we are a family. Parents, guardians, and community members play a vital role in our success, and we encourage their active participation through volunteering and support. Together, we strive to create a positive, nurturing environment where every child can thrive and achieve their personal best.
Thank you for allowing your child to experience our League. We care about our league families and we are counting on each of you to support our efforts to ensure that you and your children are always demonstrating respectful behavior to the coaches and the officials. Coaches and officials are crucial to the game and are also a part of our SMART SPORTS NFL Flag League family.
Join us at SMART Sports NFL Flag and be a part of a vibrant community that celebrates youth, sportsmanship, and the joy of flag football. Let's play, grow, and succeed together!
