After the first two weeks of the season we realized just how much information we could pack into our Flag Football Finals from around the state. As such starting this week, we are taking on a new approach to our Flag Football Final reports by publishing regional Flag Football Final reports on Wednesday’s for games played on Monday and Tuesday, Friday’s for games played on Wednesday and Thursday while doing a final report for the week on most Saturday evenings or Sunday afternoons for games played on Friday and Saturday.
With each Flag Football Final will provide you scores from around the region with extended recaps on some of the top games and highlight top performances for each day in the report.
Coaches who would like to provide us with a detailed box score can do so by sending in your box score report using our form by clicking here.
