Flag Football Guide: How a match works
About

How a match works
Step
When you start, the matchmaking system finds an opposing team. Once a match is set, everyone spawns on the field and takes either an offensive or defensive position. Possession switches after a score or after the offense uses up their chances. The team with the most points when time expires wins.
- Spawn on the field
you are placed at a position on offense or defense when the match begins.
- Play your side
attack when you have the ball, defend when the other team does.
- Switch possession
after a score or a failed drive, the other team takes over on offense.
- Win at the buzzer
whichever team leads when the clock hits zero takes the match.

Ball carrier basics
Tips
Flag football replaces tackling with flag-pulling, so your job as the ball carrier is to reach the end zone before a defender snatches your flag. You can run it yourself or throw to a teammate.
- Catch passes from teammates to keep the drive moving forward.
- Run toward the end zone while dodging defenders who are going for your flag.
- Pass to a teammate when your lane is blocked.
- Reaching the end zone scores a point.
