NFL Flag Announces 2024 Fall Tournament Schedule

NFL Flag announced its 2024 Fall regional schedule featuring 15 NFL Flag regional tournaments. This is the largest NFL Flag tournament circuit ever, featuring 32 NFL clubs and 32 tournaments.  Every winning team from the 2024 fall regionals (15) and 2025 spring regionals (17) will advance to next year’s NFL Flag Championships Presented by Toyota.

“The Fall Regional Tournaments kick off the process of qualifying teams for the 2025 NFL Flag Championships,” said Stephanie Kwok, NFL vice president and head of flag football. “We look forward to seeing which teams win their regional tournament and punch their ticket to compete for the NFL Flag Championship title next summer.”

The 2024 NFL Flag Regional Tournament schedule, which kicks off in Kansas City on October 12, offers athletes more opportunities to compete. The regional tournaments will include flag football for all youth athletes between the ages of 8U and 17U for the girls' bracket and 8U and 14U for the coed bracket. The 2024 NFL Flag Regional Tournaments will include recreational brackets which will provide a better experience and more opportunities for national organizations to compete such as the YMCA, the Boys and Girls Club, Parks & Rec, etc.

In recent years, flag football has seen unprecedented growth, allowing the sport to take center stage at The World Games in Birmingham, Alabama. the 2022 NFL Draft in Las Vegas, and, most recently, the NFL Flag Championships at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.  

”NFL Flag continues to grow every year, and we’re excited to see that trend continue this season,” said RCX Sports CEO and NFL Flag executive director Izell Reese. “We’re grateful to the NFL clubs for their support and complete buy-in for this fall’s tournament schedule, the largest slate of NFL Flag Regional Tournaments yet.”

NFL Flag Regional Tournaments are exclusive to teams who participate in NFL Flag Leagues and all regional tournaments are supported by the NFL club in the nearest market. More than 1,000 NFL Flag teams are expected to take the field this season, ranging from youth athletes under eight to 17 years old with four different girls’ brackets. 

International youth athletes across the globe will have the opportunity to compete in their local tournaments, with the champions eventually able to play at the NFL Flag Championships. In Canada, for example, youth athletes compete in six different Canadian Regional Tournaments leading into the NFL Flag Canadian National Championship.

Toyota is the presenting partner of the NFL Flag Regional Tournaments and Championship. Additional partners include Franklin Sports, Gatorade, Subway, Oakley, Augusta Sportswear, NSID, Player’s Health, Sports Connect and TeamSnap.

Earlier this summer, the NFL Flag Championships saw more than 2,100 players participate from around the world. The NFL Flag Regional Tournament will, again, serve as a pathway for youth athletes to compete at next year’s Championships where the games will be broadcast across ESPN and ABC. Recently, the NFL also announced the 2025 Pro Bowl Games will return to Orlando, Fl., where the league’s top players will compete in on-field and off-field skills competitions and in an action-packed flag football game at Camping World Stadium. In late August, elite flag football talent representing 32 nations across five continents will converge on the biggest-ever IFAF World Flag Football Championships in Lahti, Finland.

Played by an estimated 20 million people in more than 100 countries across six continents, flag football is a short, fast, non-contact and gender-equal format. It is the most inclusive and accessible format of football, played by people of all ages and genders, with women and girls driving some of the sport’s fastest growth.
