Hello everyone!!

Most of our competitors play spring flag football in a league in Kenosha. Due to our communities being heavily involved with other sports, baseball, soccer, etc., and usually not having the time to commit to such a drive. It was decided to form the ACYFL and allow us all to be much closer to home and be more flexible for other sport’s schedules.
Our goal for spring 7v7 flag football is to get our QBs and receivers a chance to start to gel early before our tackle season and work on pass coverage for our defensive backs and linebackers. You can expect them to learn techniques specifically related to offensive passing concepts and pass defense. Therefore, this will primarily be a team for skill position players (QB, RB, TE, LB and DB) A great season for us would be to hone some of our pass plays, routes and defensive coverages. Linemen are certainly allowed and welcome to sign up but may not see as much carryover or benefit to our tackle team.

Have an amazing day!
