Millis Flag Football is an alternative to full-contact 11 on 11 football but it is still competitive and contact does happen if inadvertantly!

In 2010 we will offer the same program we have offered our first four years where everyone gets a chance to play every position and everyone gets a turn to run, throw and catch...  In addition - by participant request - we will have competitive travel teams who will have the opportunity to compete in the regional and national tournaments.  These will be select teams requiring an additional cost (tournament entry, travel & hotel costs) and additional practice and game time commitments. 

We welcome your feedback at millisflag@verizon.net

Thanks again for your support of our program!

The program will be substantially the same in 2010 as it has been the last four years!  Age groups will be 5&6, 7&8, 9-11 and 12 +!  Birth certificates are required for all new participants and should be presented at evaluations which will be announced!  No player will be placed on a team without a birth certificate on file and a paid registration!

Registration tips:

1.  The info we are looking for - age, DOB, jersey size, etc., is for your child. 

2.  Your child's eligibility is as of 9/1/10 - their age on that date - per the NFL - copies of birth certificates for participants who have not provided them in the past should be brought to evaluations.

3.  We are unable to honor teammate or coach requests - we will try to place kids from the same town with other kids from that town.

4.  Jersey sizes are youth or adult as specified.  You may want to order a jersey/t-shirt that is slightly larger than you normally would to accommodate a turtleneck or sweatshirt in the cold weather.  Please remember to enter a size that will fit your child.  We are not able to call every participant to check on sizes nor are we able to change sizes once entered. 

5.  Please email millisflag@verizon.net with any questions.

 Watch this space for more information on Buddy Bowl - "football for charity" - coming to Millis on Saturday, November 20, 2010!  This tournament will give everyone the chance to participate so dust off your playbook, polish your cleats and get in shape!  Adult as well as youth divisions!  Check out the website at http://www.buddybowl.org/

This turnament is for FUN and charity - so bring the right attitude - there is no whining...!!!  If you whine or don't have the right "Buddy" attitude you will not be invited back!  You could also win the Golden Pacifier award!!! 

Early registration closes on May 31st.  Registration during this period is $60.00 per player.  Registration after May 31st will be $85.00 per player and will close on June 30th.

Millis Flag Football Travel Program

This program will involve additional costs as well as an additional time and travel commitment.  This program is for experienced players who want to take their game to the next level.  Any player wishing to participate in this program must register for the regular fall program by April 30, 2010.  This is a select program and players are selected by the coaches based on past experience.  Here are the details from the email that went out: 

If you would like to volunteer to help in any way in 2010 please email the administrator at millisflag@verizon.net. 

Please include a subject line of:  Volunteer - Coach or Volunteer - Field management, etc.

We need help with:
Level Coordinators/Evaluators (pre-season, etc.)
Field Coordinators (Game day stuff)
Field Management (lines, etc.)
Merchandise coordinators (sweatshirts, caps, etc.)
Equipment Manager (jerseys, balls, team bags, etc.)
Web site manager (Think you can do better than me?  I do!)

I'm sure we'll come up with some other things!
 
During the season this space will have game schedules (sample below) and other information.  Our goal is to offer the kids the chance to play one of the most popular games in the world!  Given that opportunity we hope they can learn how to run, throw and catch - and maybe pick up some of the finer points of the game!
