Welcome to the website for the DC Gay Flag Football League (DCGFFL), DC’s premier LGBTQ+ flag football league. The DCGFFL started informally in 1994 and became an official league in 2010. Since its early beginnings, the league has grown to over 200 players and has fielded as many as 20 teams in a season! We’re a fun community of athletes, allies, family, and friends, and we hope you’ll join and get to know us! We welcome all levels, from brand new to veteran footballer. If you’re a rookie, your captain and quarterback will work with you to learn the rules and develop your skills. If you’re a football all-star, you’ll find a competitive atmosphere with a lot of other talented players that will challenge you to play your best. We welcome all participants, allies and LGBTQ+ community members alike, and we do not ask players to self-identify.
