Flag Football Frenzy Spreads to Sunshine State

As the women's collegiate flag football scene gains momentum, Florida high school football programs are taking notice. With top recruits like Apopka's star quarterback, Jada Jenkins, and her teammate, wide receiver, Kaelyn Jackson, already being scouted by college flag football teams, coaches are adjusting their strategies to prepare for the growing trend. Flag football's emphasis on speed and agility is also influencing local coaches to adapt their training regimens, incorporating more agility drills and speed work into their practices. The likes of Miami's Coral Reef High School and Tampa's Plant High School are already implementing flag football-style drills to give their players an edge.
