Flag Football teams like the South Florida Express provide a developmental ground for skill position players and give them opportunities to hone their skills against some of the best footballers under the radiant South Florida Sun.

Coach Goetz, How much have you seen the seven-on-seven flag football circuit grow over the years?

"“When I started 10 years ago it definitely wasn’t what it was today. It has definitely grown. I was one of the first teams down here now I see over 100 teams across the country. Most recently, the traveling aspect has become a huge part of it. We are going to travel to Orlando this weekend for a tournament and then later on this year we plan on traveling to Las Vegas for a tournament.”"
