WELCOME TO WESTFORD FLAG FOOTBALL

We’re excited to launch our inaugural Westford Flag Football Spring League for U10 and U12 players — co-ed and designed to be fun, fast-paced, and welcoming for all experience levels.

This first season will have limited team enrollment as we get the league established. We’re currently planning for 4 teams in each division, with rosters capped at 10 players per team. If interest is strong, we may expand — especially as we confirm additional head coaches.

• Registration is available for U10 & U12 age divisions limited to 4 teams each division.  See Player Registration below

• Waitlists* will be established after the cap is reached.  If we have enough players and head coaches and referees we may be able to expand

Westford’s flag football program is an official NFL Flag Football organization. Founded in 2004 the league serves the local communities with the strong support of the Westford Recreation Department.  The continuing mission of the league is to offer local youths a fun alternative to contact football and operates with the philosophy that “everyone plays” and is given an equal chance to participate. 

The league provides participants with a safe and fun team sport in which each feels welcomed. NFL’s flag football rules and our own policies serve to promote player growth and equal participation.

With a primary goal of fun while teaching flag football skills and good sportsmanship, the league encourages its coaches and parents to consider winning as secondary goals.
