The Jr. Red Devils Flag Football Club has been in operation for almost 20 years serving boys and girls in grades 2-12.
From its inaugural season through today, the Jr. Red Devils’ philosophy separates itself from other youth sports programs. Thousands of kids have had the opportunity to learn, play, and enjoy the great sport of football with the Jr. Red Devils. Many of those players have gone on to represent their local high schools at the varsity level and beyond. More importantly, they have learned the lessons of competition, sportsmanship and fair play.
All game nights are conveniently located at Ridge High School's Lee Field on Monday and Wednesday nights from 6-9pm.

Parents have always embraced this program because of our relaxed and inclusive approach to youth sports:
- No evaluations
- No travel
- No standings or playoffs
- No stress!
Every child will get equal playing time and be encouraged to play any position they want. The more fun they have, the more they will learn.

General information
Welcome to the Jr Red Devils Flag Football team. Below is some information about the upcoming season.
Registration is now open. Please complete the form under the Registration tab.
Similar to other youth sports programs, the Jr. Red Devil Flag Football Board is monitoring the government and health organizations' guidelines and recommendations regarding getting back to competitive sports. Our format and flexibility uniquely position the Jr. Red Devil Program to organize and initiate a season in short notice or to have an abbreviated season or modified program, if necessary.
The Jr. Red Devils Board will be closely following the COVID-19 situation through the summer. We will be prepared to offer our players a safe environment to return to being active, playing with their friends, and having FUN on the football field.
To help prepare for the season, we are excited to announce that registration for the 2020 Season is NOW OPEN! Click the "REGISTRATION" link on top of the page.
SEASON START: September 9, 2020
All games will be played on the Ridge Turf field on Mondays and Wednesdays. Times will differ on Mon and Wed to accommodate conflicts with religious studies. Updates to the schedule may happen and will be communicated via email blast and social media.
2nd, 3rd & 4th grades will play 1-hour games
5th & 6th grades will play 1-hour games
7th - 12th grades will play 1-hour games
As players enter the high school field area, there is a board posted which lists the team rosters for that night, the coaches, the field assignments, and the jersey color (silver or green) for each team. Our jerseys are reversible, so your child’s team color may change each week. The team rosters change every week, so your child will play with different teammates every week throughout the season. If players arrive late, they will be placed on any team in order to even out the sides. To minimize confusion for your child, please arrive 15 minutes prior to your game.
The games last 60 minutes, including a five-minute halftime. Everyone plays every game. If you can't make a game, no problem, we will see you next time. With no team standings or even team names, we have had good success in maintaining fair play and engaging games.
We will “flip flop” some of the times to accommodate CCD and other events
Uniforms consist of a shirt, flag belt, hat, and bag. Players MUST provide their own mouthguard.
