NFL FLAG is the premier youth football league for boys and girls ages 4-17. The program provides young players a fun and exciting opportunity to engage in non-contact, continuous action while learning lessons in teamwork. Neighborhood Sports is the local NFL League organizer with leagues in Cedar Park, Round Rock, Steiner Ranch, Georgetown, Southwest Austin, Lake Austin/Westlake, Pflugerville, and Lago Vista. We offer a spring, fall and winter season.

Launched in 1996, the FLAG Football program is designed to educate young people about football while emphasizing participation and sportsmanship. Players learn skills and lessons that help them succeed both on and off the field.

The game is 5 on 5 flag football that teaches the basic skills of football running, passing, receiving and defending. Games involve non-contact rules that eliminate all forms of blocking and tackling. The program is played on a 50-yard playing field where participants may run or pass the ball. Teams start at their 5-yard line and have three downs to move the ball past midfield. Once a team has crossed midfield they receive a new set of three downs to score.
