Flag football is a variation of American football which is more popular worldwide. The basic rules are similar to the mainstream game although in flag football, instead of tackling players to the ground, the defensive team must remove a flag or flag belt from the ball carrier to end a down.

Enjoy this fun sport right in your own backyard. Organize a family and friends flag football match where kids and adults can both play. Create your own flag football equipment such as makeshift flags that can easily be tugged off every player. Homemade goalposts can just as easily be assembled from PVC pipes.
