Juniors
The N’Credible Junior program is your child’s entry program into the N Zone Sports line of flag football programs. Unlike other programs that rely on volunteer parents to organize and run activities for younger kids, the N’Credible program features an N Zone Certified, background-checked staff member who will coordinate and run the entire program. Games are offered just one day a week, typically Saturday mornings (check your local program for more information on dates and times). And football isn’t just for boys anymore! One of the fastest growing sports is flag football. Patterned after regular football, teams run or pass the ball down field in order to score a touchdown. The primary difference in flag football is that it is a “no contact” game. Instead of tackling the ball carrier, defensive players try to pull the flags off the ball carrier’s belt. Due to it’s non-contact nature, players can enjoy all the great parts of the game without the danger associated with contact. The N’credible program offers young players a fun and exciting opportunity to engage in non-contact, continuous action while learning age-specific instruction with skills like passing, catching, running and defense. In addition, important values are discussed and integrated into each session. Each player registration includes an official N Zone Jr. Sports program jersey and a post season achievement award. It’s the perfect game for boys or girls. Ages: 3 & up.
