Important information
Contribution
Senior Flag Football team membership fees start at €350. This basic fee covers a wide range of essential costs that contribute to the smooth running of the season, such as field rental, training sessions, match menus, and other team supplies.
At the start of the season, players receive a list of matches and tournaments they can participate in. If you choose to participate in international competitions, additional registration fees and travel-related expenses may apply. These costs must be paid in advance and may cause your total fee to increase.
With this flexible approach, players can customise their season to suit their own ambitions and abilities, while being fully supported by the club.
Equipment
Participation in the Senior Flag Football team requires specific equipment to perform optimally and play safely.
- Match shirt: The match shirt is provided by the association. This ensures that all players are uniform and professional on the field.
- Flags: The flags are also provided by the club, so that everyone meets the official playing requirements. If you want to purchase your own flags, you are of course welcome to do so.
What you need to buy:
- Kicks: Shoes with good grip are essential to move fast and agile on the pitch.
- Gloves: These are optional, but can help with catching and controlling the ball.
- Bit: Although a bit is not mandatory, it can provide extra protection and is highly recommended for safety.
With this equipment, you will be well prepared to take to the field and get the best out of yourself during training sessions and matches.
Matches
The Senior Flag Football team participates in multiple leagues, giving players plenty of opportunities to showcase and improve their skills.
Our main competitions are:
- The National League: This is organised by the American Football Association Netherlands (AFBN) and provides a structured environment in which teams from all over the country compete against each other.
- Flag Football League (FFL): In this league, many national teams compete, but sometimes also teams from abroad, making for a challenging and diverse playing experience.
Besides these regular leagues, we also participate in international competitions. For this, we sign up for tournaments and travel to the respective country to play against foreign teams. Please note that the costs for international competitions are at our own expense. These matches are planned by the board, with accommodation and transport arranged. The corresponding costs are then shared among the players and coaches.
With this wide selection of competitions and tournaments, the Senior Flag Football team offers an exciting and versatile playing experience for everyone!
