Spring League is underway. Currently, we have six active teams and are accepting players who are interested in subbing for our players. This is a great way to get on the field, check us out, and meet amazing players.
If you are interested in the sport of flag football, then LA Flag Football is meant for you. We are a 7-on-7 adult league that is open to all genders, sexual orientations, and skill levels. We have a few more weekends of open play, also refereed to as “pick-up”, before play is closed to those registered for the 2012 season. So if you are curious and want to see what things are about, then come join us out there on the field and see for yourself.
If you are interested in joining our group e-mail list to get reminders about pick-up, season information, league parties, or charity events, please send us an e-mail at: laflagfootball@gmail.com
Where: We play at Helen Bernstein High School in Hollywood (Sunset Blvd. exit off the 101 fwy, directly across the street from Denny’s).
When: We play on Saturdays from 11am til 2pm.
What to bring:
Both a white and dark shirt (not grey)
Wear shorts with no pockets (for safety reasons)

The 2012 Season for LA Flag Football will be starting soon, and so we need you to get your registration forms and fees in as soon as possible. The deadline for early registration has been extended til March 10th with the fee being $65. After March 10th, the registration fee is increased to $80 with the final deadline for all forms and fees by March 24th.
However, you can help yourselves and the league by bringing out new players. For every new player you have sign-up for the upcoming season, we will discount your registration fee by $5.
Bring in 10 new players, and you play the season for free.
