In Youth Flag Football, the focus is on teamwork in a positive and structured environment. Children learn how to throw, catch, run routes and other aspects of the game that will keep them active and develop skills such as hand-eye coordination. In addition, children will have an opportunity to develop leadership skills and build self-esteem as they learn.

 

The Y’s youth flag football programs are sponsored by the Kansas City Chiefs. Flag football participants receive exclusive Chiefs jerseys and medals, as well as access to Chiefs football camps, special events for families, and appearances by KC Wolf and the Chiefs Cheerleaders.

 

Thanks to a grant from USA Football benefitting the YMCA of Greater Kansas City girls flag football program, prices are reduced for girls flag football leagues.

 

Bitty Flag Football is also available for players ages 3-5 years.
