    • Concussion Recognition and Response
    • Shoulder Tackling
    • Blocking
    • Heat Preparedness and Hydration
    • Sudden Cardiac Arrest
    • Equipment Fitting

    Flag Football Program

    Dragon Youth Football (DYF) is excited to partner with USA Football and its adoption of the United States Olympic Committee's American Development Model (ADM).  This program is designed to focus on the proper development of young players, increase enjoyment and ensure the sports long-term viability.  

    The goal of our flag program is to teach the fundamentals of football in a fun and positive manner. Encourage competitiveness without sacrificing sportsmanship or teamwork.  

    3rd Grade Rookie Tackle

    Dragon Youth Football (DYF) is excited to partner with USA Football and its adoption of the United States Olympic Committee's American Development Model (ADM).  

    This program is designed to focus on the proper development of young players, increase enjoyment and ensure the sports long-term viability.  

    For 3rd Grade Tackle Football we are excited about our Rookie Tackle Program.  Through close coordination with USA Football, we successfully implemented a modified approach to tackle football.  This program has been implemented across the Nation with amazing results.  It's a bridge between Flag Football and Full 11v11 Tackle Football.
