"Friday Night Lights" Youth Flag Football is a non-profit 501 (C) 3 organization that was founded by Mark Broersma and Chris Ketcham in 2006. Over 15,000 kids play FNL in 11 different leagues. Seeing local families traveling to Los Alamitos to play in this top notch flag football league, Carlsbad High School Head Varsity Coach Thadd MacNeal and Assistant Coach Paul Publico made the decision to bring FNL to North County Coast. Thadd and Paul have played, coached and served on the boards of many sports leagues at all levels. Their vision is to bring a high quality FUN Flag Football league to North County Coast. Previously kids in this area had very limited, if any, opportunities to participate in the most exciting sport in america.....Flag Football.

Online Registration for the Fall season takes place May 1st with practices beginning in August and games starting in September.
