Flag Football & Cheerleading

All participants age 4-6 as of August 1 are eligible to play flag football.   Our flag football program is designed to be instructional and fun. We have made many new enhancements to our flag football program for the 2018 season:

1. Expanded Program to 9 Teams - We have expanded our program to play in a newly formed Flag Football league (ages 4-6) that is part of the East Wake Football League.  We will now play against 9 different teams across the EWFL area.
2. Game Format - All 9 teams will travel to the same location for games.  Each team will be matched up according to the attached schedule and will play 2 games each game day Saturday.  The first game will be a "Jamboree" held in Cleveland on August 25th.  We will play games every Saturday morning, at 9 AM,  beginning on Saturday, September 1.  On Saturday October 20, we will play in a "Flag Bowl" hosted in Bunn.
3. Practice - We will practice every Tuesday evening from 6:30 - 8PM beginning with our first practice on Tuesday, August 7th until the end of the season.
4. What do you need?  Clayton Civitan will provide all necessary equipment and game jerseys.  All players should have a pair of cleats with rubber soles (no metal cleats allowed).

We are hosting a brief, mandatory parent meeting this Saturday, July 28th at 12 PM, at the Clayton Civitan, to review this information and other important details about the upcoming season.  Please plan to attend. 

Flag Cheer leading is also designed for ages 4-6 and will practice / participate on the same days and times as flag football
