Alabama Community College Conference adds women’s flag football
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) – The Alabama Community College Conference has launched women’s flag football as an official sport.
Women’s flag football is one of newest athletic offerings sanctioned by the National Junior College Athletic Association.
ACCC will offer the sport to female student-athletes beginning in the 2025-2026 academic year.
“This new and exciting sport is going to bring additional opportunities to female student-athletes and provide that additional opportunity for them to continue the sport that they love,” said ACCC Commissioner Dean Myrick.
Myrick said women’s flag football has exploded on the parks and recreation level, as well as within the Alabama High School Athletic Association.
Once completion begins next fall, Alabama will feature the largest flag football conference in the NJCAA.
