Julington Creek - Plantation Park

Winter 2025 - Julington Creek - Plantation Park

Registration is open for Winter 24 Youth Flag Football here in Northeast Florida! Great for first-timers, kids who participate in other sports, and experienced athletes, flag football provides the same excitement and development as real football, without the contact!

We offer the ability for friends and family to participate on the same team each season. The best way to ensure your athletes are on the same team is to register early (saving $$$), and filling in the “Buddy Requests/Coach Requests” during your registration process.

Another great way to ensure your athletes are grouped with friends, is to have a parent coach! We provide great materials for first-time coaches (https://gridironfb.com/pages/gridiron-coachs-library), we are happy to work with you to become thebest coach and mentor possible! Reach out today if you are interested in coaching.

SPACE IS LIMITED. ONCE A DIVISION IS FULL, REGISTRATION WILL CLOSE FOR THAT DIVISION. IF WE NEED PLAYERS TO COMPLETE A TEAM, WE WILL SEND AN EMAIL TO ANYONE WHO BEGAN REGISTRATION BUT WERE TOLD THERE WAS NO ROOM LEFT. YOUR INFORMATION WILL BE SAVED IN THE SYSTEM SO THERE IS NO NEED TO EMAIL US TO ASK IF THERE IS SPACE.
