Extractions: Jump to: navigation search An Intramural game of co-ed flag football at the University of Texas at Austin Flag football is a version of American football that is popular across the United States . The basic rules of the game are similar to those of the professional game, but instead of tackling players to the ground, the defensive team must remove a flag or flag belt from the ball carrier ("deflagging") to end a down. In most organized play, players wear a belt with flags around the waist, but the number of flags varies from league to league. Like touch football , flag football was designed in an effort to minimize injuries that playing tackle football could bring. Over the years, however, contact leagues have emerged, where offensive and defensive players can block in certain zones or downfield, adding to the myriad styles of the game. This list is incomplete ; you can help by expanding it Rules of flag football vary greatly, mostly depending on the sanctioning body that establishes the rules. Several regional and national bodies have developed rules for flag football. A brief overview of some key rules: United States Flag Football Association Field specifications Field is 53 1/3 yards wide by 80 yards long, with 10 yard endzones. Field is marked in 20 yard intervals, with a 3 yard mark from each goal line. Allowances are made for smaller or larger fields based on local geography. A goal consisting of posts 23 feet 4 inches apart (inside dimensions) with a crossbar 10 feet off the ground lies at the center of the endline behind each endzone. Pylons mark the four corners of the endzone. A down marker indicates line of scrimmage and down.

LONG ISLAND FLAG FOOTBALL LEAGUE EWB
The Long Island flag football League The Largest Football League In The World.
http://www.liffl.com/

Extractions: Email While attending N.Y.U. in the late 1970's, LIFFL Commissioner George Higgins began playing flag football in an intramural program. To supplement his income during college, he worked at Macy's in the Roosevelt Field Shopping Center on Long Island. While there, he formed a team called "Macy's Jets" and joined a local "touch" league on his native Long Island. However, the league had "full-contact" and no "line" play (everyone was eligible to catch passes) so between injuries from the full-contact and nothing for linemen to do, he had to find a better way. In the Fall of 1984, the Long Island Flag Football League was finally born. The basic game George Higgins created was 8-on-8, a 40X80 yard field, open hand blocking only, 1st downs at the 20-40-20 yard lines, and 3 ineligible linemen. It has became known as "8-Man Ineligible" flag football! Herman's won the Championship that 1st season in 1984 and in 1985 a Suffolk County division was added while the original teams in Eisenhower Park became the Nassau Division.
