Become a Founding GAFL Club
The Girls American Flag League is building its first group of founding clubs to help launch a national club-based platform for girls flag football.
Founding clubs will receive early access to GAFL’s launch structure, regional planning, showcase opportunities, recruiting visibility, national club standards, and brand-building support.
This is for clubs that want more than another tournament. It is for organizations ready to give their athletes a bigger platform, their families a clearer pathway, and their club a stronger national position.
