Darien YMCA Flag Football is a recreational program designed for youngsters new to the sport of football as well as those not quite ready for tackle football who want to learn how to play the sport, brush up on the rules, tactics, and skills, improve their game and most importantly, HAVE FUN!

Our focus is on football education, participation, and sportsmanship. Flag Football is open to Boys & Girls entering 4th, 5th, & 6th grade in the fall of 2010. Our program had been designed to give the players an opportunity to learn the basics of football and develop a better appreciation of the game. It is a wonderful experience, a great way to learn the skills of teamwork, and a lot of fun.
