Coaching Seacoast Youth Flag Football



Coaching Reminder: Head coaches are allowed to select ONE assistant coach until rosters have been finalized by the league. Once rosters are complete and posted, head coaches can have as many assistant coaches they would like from their given roster of parents.


Help young athletes fall in love with football and teach them valuable lessons that will last more than just four quarters. 

Why NFL FLAG?

NFL FLAG is the largest flag football organization in the country and supported by the National Football League. Youth athletes ages 4 to 17—regardless of background, age and socioeconomic status—have the opportunity to participate in a fast-paced football league in a safe environment. 

Show your love of the game by helping to create plays and memories for NFL FLAG youth athletes 

  • Access to free coaching tools

  • Official NFL team jerseys for your players

  • Opportunity to help young athletes have fun while teaching them the importance of sportsmanship, teamwork, comradery and discipline

  • A chance to inspire the next generation of football players

Please note: Teams are only allowed to have one head coach and one assistant coach assigned to a team until after rosters are finalized internally by the league. The only exception would be if a coach does not have a player playing in the league and has volunteered to help.
After teams are finalized, more than two coaches are allowed per team if the head coach would like.



Coaching a team of youths can be a tremendously rewarding experience, giving you the opportunity to help young players grow and learn, face challenges and experience success.

No prior coaching experience necessary - as a Seacoast Youth Flag Football Coach, you will be given all the resources and support you need to help you succeed.

If you have a child playing in the league, you will coach their team.
