History was made in Kentucky.
Girls Flag Football is officially SANCTIONED by the KHSAA!
This is bigger than football. This is about opportunity, leadership, confidence, discipline, and giving young women another platform to compete, grow, and shine.
At FLAG — Fearless Ladies Attacking Greatness — we’re excited to be part of the movement and help build the future of girls football right here in Kentucky.
The game is growing. The doors are opening. The future is female football.
One Team. One Family. One Purpose. 🏈👑
With a 15-2 vote, the Kentucky High School Athletic Association has officially sanctioned Girls Flag Football. The sport will officially begin as a sanctioned KHSAA sport during the 2027-2028 school year and will be played in the spring.
