Welcome To Wildcat Nation! 

Wayne Wildcats Flag Football Program

Flag football is an entry stage to the sport of football and an alternative to full contact football for ages 5 - 9. Flag football teaches the basic skills and concepts of the game. Our program is designed to introduce young athletes to the game while providing a safe environment to grow in the sport.
