SPRING FLAG FOOTBALL

Spring season is for fast action fun flag football for new and returning players of all experience levels. The game is non-contact, 5v5 flag football with regular season games played at jamborees throughout the Lower Mainland and BCPFA Provincials in White Rock or Kamloops (more info below).

Practice Schedule:

  • Practices start March 11, 2025 and end after the Provincials in early June.

  • Practices will be 60 minutes at Minoru Field on Tuesdays and Thursdays evenings. Practice times are tentatively set as follows:

    * Please note that practice times may change based on quantity of registrations and field availability.

Game Schedule:

  • Game Jamborees will start mid-April, with teams playing four 25-minute games. We anticipate six tournaments, typically held on Saturdays at various locations across the Lower Mainland. Game times and additional details for each Jamboree will be provided by the Vancouver Mainland Football League.

  • NEW INFORMATION REGARDING PROVINCIALS:

    All teams are invited to participate in the BCPFA Spring Flag Provincial Tournament (there is no qualifying for Provincials).

For all other age divisions (U8 to U16 - players born 2019-2010) the Provincials will be held in Kamloops on June 7-8th with teams playing on both days.

    PLEASE NOTE: All travel arrangements and costs are the responsibility of the players/parents and not included in RMFL fees.
