--COACHES' MEETINGS are scheduled for 8/9 and 8/10 in the parkwood clubhouse.  Time is 6:30pm each night.  You only need to attend one of these meetings, as they will both go over the same thing: Logistical info for the season, game night details & volunteer roles, and rules of our league.  Rosters will be given out at the meetings.  There will be another meeting the week of 8/14.

2022 Season Information

We are looking forward to another great season of Parkwood NFL Flag Football this fall!  All registrations will be done online this year.  If you have not created an account, you can do that before registration opens. This will save you some time (and stress if it doesn't go smoothly for you!) once registration opens.  We will have a maximum total number of players of just over 500 this year.

Again for 2022, the 6-8 age group will play their games on SUNDAY AFTERNOONS. Time is TBD but will likely be in the 1-4pm range. We will not play at the same time as the Parkwood intramural soccer games, and we will make every attempt to schedule around the Parkwood travel soccer teams' games.  If you play soccer for another organization, you should not count on us being able to schedule flag football around your team's travel schedule.  Ages 9-17 will still play on Friday nights, with games starting at 6pm, 7pm, 8pm, and 9pm.  We will try to get the 9-11 age games done before 9pm (this is referee-dependent, but we were able to keep the 9-11s in the early slots last year).  The 12-14 age group should expect to have start times throughout the whole 6-9pm range.  The 15-17 age group will almost exclusively play their games at 9pm every week.

When you register your child, you will be asked if you would like to volunteer at the club.  We have many volunteer opportunities, including setting up and breaking down fields, kitchen duty, staffing the mouthpiece/candy/drinks trailer, trash cleanup, field painting, and other duties.  If you choose not to volunteer for 3 hours of service, you will be charged an extra (non-refundable) $50 with your registration.  As an all-volunteer organization, we prefer your time and not your money, so please consider helping out and save yourself the $50.  Most service opportunities for flag football are scheduled either immediately before or immediately after your child's game time on the week(s) that your team has volunteer duty.  Each team has 2-3 volunteer duty nights throughout the season.  As always, we have Head Coach and Assistant Coach volunteer opportunities as well.  All coaches WILL BE REQUIRED TO TURN IN CLEARANCES before their team will receive its jerseys.  Note that we define a coach as: any parent volunteer who is around the children on the sidelines.  If your team has 5 parents who are "helping" coach, they ALL need clearances.  If you are thinking about coaching, go ahead and get your clearances done today.  It's free for volunteers!  Go to the 'volunteer central' page for all links to required clearances.

INFO: On the registration form, you will see the COVID-19 refund policy (also below), which you should read in its entirety before signing up.  Immediately after registering your player, please check your email and look for a confirmation email stating that you have signed up a player for flag football.  In 2019 and 2021, we had several parents sign up for volunteer work but did not complete their child's flag football registration correctly.  If you create a new account, you will receive an account creation confirmation email.  If you sign up for volunteer work, you will receive a volunteer confirmation email.  Neither of these two email confirms that you have completed a player's registration.  If you have trouble with account creation or registration, please IMMEDIATELY email the webmaster ([email protected]).  We cannot help you once an age division closes!   There will be "wait lists" used for all age groups that reach the maximum number of players before July 31st.

If you have any questions, please email [email protected] and we will do our best to help you out.  Don't wait until July 31st to reach out!  By then, it will be too late!
