| The Fall 2023 Season is here! We are excited to have you join us and appreciate your support for 49ers Varsity Flag Football.
Registration Is Open Through September 10th! Over the course of this season, we will be sending you emails and texts containing important information. Due to this being a mass email system, please add us to your safe-senders list and frequently check your filters to confirm messages aren't directed to your junk mail, spam, or clutter. Communication is key to ensure the success of the league experience for everyone. Included are answers to some common questions you may have. If you have any questions throughout the season, you can email us at [email protected], or call 408-370-0500.
Fall registration opens May 1st, and closes September 10th. After the registration deadline, late registration is available, but based upon availability and is not guaranteed. Once registration is full we will build a wait list and fill openings from the waitlist on a first come - first served basis. A $10.00 increase in registration will apply and you will be placed on any team that has openings in your grade division. Buddy requests are less likely to be met during late registration, so please don't wait until the last minute if your child is wanting to play with some of their friends!
