Girls High School Flag Football

The Cleveland Browns Girls High School Flag Football programming, presented by Gatorade and in association with Bridgestone aims to provide access and opportunities for high school female student-athletes to compete in and experience the fastest growing sport, flag football. By providing resources and information to players, coaches and parents we are able to expand their knowledge of the game and provide opportunities through the Cleveland Browns, USA Football, NFL FLAG and the NFL.

How It Started

How It Started

The Browns implementation of Girls High School Flag Football began in 2021 alongside Northeast Ohio Flag Football, and since have created the first Girls High School Flag Football division in Ohio. Together we have been working to elevate girls flag football to promote equality in sports offered at the high school level. Ultimately, the Browns are focused on creating a pathway for Girls High School Flag Football to become a sanctioned varsity sport under the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA).
