Patriots’ Girls High School Flag Football

May 16, 2025 by Tommy Brow

The New England Patriots and NFL are sponsoring a girls’ high school “club” football league. Many Massachusetts high school teams are joining in on the fun. When learning how to play flag football, start with the basics. The teams play 5 on 5 and each game consists of two halves. Local NFL Flag leagues will determine the length of each half. The clock only stops for halftime, team timeouts, or player injury.
