Spring Flag League (all divisions)

CDMFA Spring Flag League

Mustangs Football (SWEMFA) is preparing for start of the 2024 Spring Flag Football Season.

This is a short season (April & May game play) and with the game being played on a smaller field and with fewer players, each player's opportunity to touch the ball and be involved in the play is increased.

Opportunities for Athletes

1. Players interested in football, but not tackle- Our highly experienced coaching staff will be teaching the fundamental skills of football related to passing, catching and running the ball as well as pass and run defense. Flag Football is a well recognized sport and in fact was just named as a demonstration sport for the 2028 Olympic Summer Games. Start on your path to a potential Olympic Medal. 
2. Players interested in Tackle but want to develop some skills before making the transition -Our program focuses on the development of fundamental athletic skills - speed, agility, body control and movement. These skills combined with football fundamentals, allow our athletes the ability to grow and learn in the safety of a non-contact environment.
3. Tackle Players looking to enhance their skill sets -Flag football offers our tackle players an opportunity to focus on the continued development of their ball handling, body movement skills in a non-contact environment. It is a great off season training environment where players can enhance their skill sets and improve or maintain their fitness levels for the upcoming tackle football season.
