GCFFL Registration Is Almost Here!

Welcome to the Georgia Competitive Flag Football League webpage. Georgia's first competive flag football league where slight contact is acceptable. This league will bring out your competive and athletic abilities. So if you're not sure if you can handle it then is probably not the league for you. For information on how competitive flag football is played see games rules below.

Scoring:

Scoring is similar to actual NFL Football.

• Touchdowns are worth six points,
• Safeties are worth two points,

...but their are no field goals. Point-after rules are a little different. Teams can elect to either go for one or two points just like in the NFL, but there is a twist. If a team elects to go for one point, they start at the five yard line and can only pass the ball to receive the points. If they elect to go for two points, they must start from the 12-yard line and can either pass or run to receive the points.

Coaches or team captains will receive a complete set of rules and regulations.
