Intro 5-6 Football introduces young players to Flag Football with drills and imaginative games in a high energy environment because we believe children learn best when they are engaged and having fun. Our energetic coaches progressively introduce new skills, routes, and terminology so players are able to scrimmage. This program aims to prepare players for the full game so our controlled scrimmages place kids in game situations where they not only get to catch, but also where they can score touchdowns.
