  • Flag Football Rules
    Flag Football Rules Start of the Game Game time is starting time; there will be no grace period. The officials watch will be the timepiece used to decide game time. The referee shall toss a coin after designating which captain shall call the toss. The winner of the toss shall have first choice of the options for either the first or the second half. The loser shall have the first choice of options for the half the winner of the toss did not select. The options are: to choose whether a team will play offense (receive) or defense; or to choose the goal a team will defend. Teams automatically switch ends at the half. Game Time and Time Outs Games will be two 25-minute halves of running time. Only the last two minutes of the second half will be stopped for all dead ball situations – e.g. time-outs; penalties; change of possession; out of bound plays; incomplete passes; and all scores. Half time will be 2-minutes The offensive team has 15 seconds from the time the ball and restraining line are set by the officials to put the ball back into play. If the team exceeds 15 seconds, officials will call a delay of game penalty. A game or half cannot end on a defensive penalty unless the penalty is refused. Each team will be given two 30-second timeouts per half. Timeouts do not carry over from one half to the next. (See “Tie and Overtime” section, infra, for rules regarding overtime timeouts.) Passing All players are eligible to receive a pass.
