OUR STORY

From Frustrated Parents to Trusted Resource

It all started when our kids joined their first flag football teams. Like many parents, we were excited but overwhelmed. What equipment did they really need? Which brands were worth the investment? How do you know if something is appropriate for a 6-year-old versus a 10-year-old?

After countless hours scrolling through Amazon reviews, visiting sporting goods stores, and testing products with our own children, we realized we weren't alone in this struggle. Other parents were asking the same questions, making the same mistakes, and wishing someone had just done the research for them.

That's when Flag on the Play was born. We decided to turn our research obsession into a resource that would save other parents time, money, and frustration. Every product we recommend has been through our rigorous evaluation process, considering factors like:

Age Appropriateness

Does it fit the physical and developmental needs of kids aged 5-10?

Build Quality

Will it hold up to regular use by energetic young athletes?

Value for Money

Does it offer good performance relative to its price point?

Parent Feedback

What do other parents and kids say about their experience?

Today, we're proud to be a trusted resource for thousands of families across the country. We continue to test new products, update our recommendations, and help parents make informed decisions about their children's flag football journey.
