🏈📣 Hey Parents, We Heard You! 📣🏈

We listened to the concerns many of you shared with your coaches, and we completely understand the challenge of making a 5:00 PM game time after a full day of work.

We want you to have the opportunity to finish your workday, take a breath, grab dinner if needed (our concession stand will have some good options), and then bring your awesome athletes out to the field, ready to play their hearts out.

Because of that...

⏰ All game start times have been pushed back by 30 minutes! With the final games starting no later than 8:30 PM.

We also know that GameChanger may look a little wonky right now. 😅

Please bear with us as we:
✅ Post the remaining schedules
✅ Remove dissolved teams
✅ Update team names where necessary
✅ Ensure all players are assigned to the correct rosters

Updated schedules and game times are actively being posted to GameChanger as we continue working through the final details.

As always, if you're looking for information, updates, or announcements, you can find them right here on our page.

Thank you for your patience, flexibility, and support as we continue building and improving NYSA Flag Football.

It’s beginning to look a lot like football…..or whatever that Christmas song said. 😂

It seems like it was a working hand weekend around NYSA. And we never shy away from work……So the commish and family jumped on the band wagon and painted the tables at the soccer complex.

First round of painting today, second round will be complete by the time we start practices for the season tomorrow.

Ok, Summer Flag Football families… we fumbled a little bit, BUT we recovered the ball, and we are RUNNING toward the end zone!

ALL teams officially have a head coach!

A HUGE thank you to everyone who stepped up for these amazing athletes. Thanks to everyone who posted or shared posts. Your willingness to volunteer, lead, and pour into these kids is what makes this league possible.

Not all teams are fully loaded into GameChanger just yet, but you should begin receiving texts and/or emails from your coaches soon.

A few important notes:

Some teams were absorbed into other teams
Some teams went through name changes

So if your coach reaches out and mentions a different team name than you originally expected… don’t panic; that’s why.

As always, if you have any questions, concerns, or issues, you can reach me anytime at:

📧 [email protected]

Or honestly… do what many of y’all did at evaluations
Catch me out on the field!

We are almost there, families. Practices start on Monday! Let’s have an amazing season.

Hey, NYSA Flag Football Parents!

An email went out this morning to a handful of families regarding shorts sizes.

Since this is our FIRST season with shorts included in the registration package, we discovered that some player sizes were not selected during registration.

If you received:
📧 An email from me
OR
📱 A message from your coach

…please reply as soon as possible with your player’s shorts size so we can finalize the order TODAY.

To everyone who has already responded — THANK YOU!

We do not want to make assumptions for any player when it comes to sizing.

And don’t panic if you DIDN’T get an email
That likely means you already selected a shorts size during registration.

If you are unsure, feel free to send us an email with:
✔️ Player’s name
✔️ Division
✔️ Shorts size

Jersey and shorts orders are going in TODAY!

🏈👀 Summer season… is that YOU on the horizon?!

Another touch of newness is coming to NYSA Flag Football this season.

Parents, many of you have been reaching out asking where your players landed after the draft. While we will absolutely continue replying individually, we thought it would be awesome if we were LOUD and intentional about letting everyone know where their athletes are headed this summer. 🔥

📣 Team announcements are coming!
And yes — your coaches will absolutely be reaching out soon if they haven’t already.

We are still looking for:
🚨 TWO 8U coaches
🚨 THREE 12U coaches

So if you’ve been thinking about stepping up, NOW is the time. We have athletes ready to go and teams ready to be led.

And coaches… before we even officially start the season, let me say it again:

THANK YOU. 👏

Some of you are coaching two teams.
Some of you are stepping in to help divisions that are still without head coaches.
Some of you have already been planning, organizing, and preparing behind the scenes.

Your dedication, teamwork, and willingness to pour into these athletes already has me excited to see what happens once the cleats hit the field.

📅 Reminder:
🏈 Practices begin the week of June 1
🔥 June 12 = Season Opener + “Previews”

Think of it as a Friday night showcase — a round of scrimmages where every team gets a chance to compete before the season officially gets rolling. Teams will compete in tournament-style games with modified quarters and halftime.

The countdown is ON.

🏈 NYSA Flag Football Family… we need you! 🏈

We know not everyone was able to make it out to evaluations this past Saturday, but now it’s time to build these teams — and we are still in need of coaches.

And yes… some of you dads already know your wives volunteered you. 😅
We won’t name names… yet. 😂

Right now, we still need:

🚨 TWO 6U coaches
🚨 TWO 8U coaches
🚨 THREE 12U coaches

If you selected “yes” or showed interest in coaching when you registered your player, this is your moment. We need you to step up and help lead these kids.

We have excited players ready for a team.
We have families waiting for updates.
Now we need leaders willing to help make this season happen.

You don’t have to be perfect.
You don’t have to know everything.
You just have to care, show up, and be willing to lead.

📧 Contact us today: [email protected]

Let’s get these teams finalized and give these players the season they’re waiting for.
