13, and 14-16 years old. Teams will be selected
and formed through a draft process after

February 24 and 25, 2018. Practices will begin
the week of March 19. Each team will play at

under, 12 & under, 14 & under, and 18 & under. The Elite League is a competitive league made of self-

outlet. The Elite League will provide players with premier competition in the region on some of the best
flag football fields in the area. Cost per team is $800 and includes NFL jerseys, up to 7 regular season
