Flag Football Leagues NOW forming!

Sports Blast Arena flag Football Leagues are for both Kids & Adults. It's high scoring fast action Football. Sign-up as an individual or a team.

General Overview: Adult format is 5 v 5 and the Kids format is 7 v 7. Teams consist of usually ten people. The games consist of two 24-minute halves with a continuous clock except the final minute of the second half. The field dimensions are the same as the Steeldogs, 185'x85'.

  • The offensive team takes possession at the 5-yard line and had three plays to cross midfield. Once a team crosses midfield, it has three plays to score a touchdown. If the offense fails to score the ball changes possessions and the new offensive team takes the ball over at its 5-yard line.
  • All possession changes, except interceptions, start on the offense's 5-yard line. Interceptions are eligible for returns.
  • Teams change sides after the first 24-minute half, with the team that lost the coin toss receiving the first possession of the second half.
  • Scoring is: 6 points for a touchdown and 1 point for and extra-point (played from the 5-yard line) or 2 points (played from the 12-yard line).
  • Quarterbacks can NOT run the ball and there are NO pitches! Hand-offs are legal and you may have multiple hand-offs!
  • There are two "No Running Zones" on the field; 5-yards in front of the end zone and 5-yards in front of midfield (the first down). They are designed to avoid short yardage, power running situations.
  • All players are eligible receivers, but there is NO Tackling!! No hands/arms on blocking, all blockers must be completely still. NO CONTACT of any kind or it will result in yardage penalties!

    Cleats are not allowed. Only regular indoor athletic shoes can be worn on the turf fields.
