For lack of a better term flag football has served as something of a connection between youth tackle football and the high school level. While it is non-contact it is still a brand of football that makes players read and react to situations. Many players who compete in a travel flag program show improvement once their focus shifts back to their school/ tackle team. Coaches always notice players that come back in the fall are throwing to tighter windows and tend to flourish against their competition. Defensive backs who have been facing elite wideouts over the summer step onto the field ready to compete against the competition as well.
