1. Know the basic rules of flag football as presented in the SDA - SARC rulebook (Seventh-day Adventist - Sports Activities Rules Committee).
2. What is the meaning of “Good Sportsmanship?”
3. Make a drawing and label the parts of the flag football field with the dimensions of each.
Sideline – The line that designates the outer boundary of the field.
End zone – The scoring portion of the field. There is an end zone located at both ends of the field, opposite to each other.
Field of play – The portion of the field inside the sidelines and excluding the end zone.
Goal line – The line the separates the end zone from the field of play. A team scores anytime a player advances the ball from the field of play in to the end zone.
Line of scrimmage (LOS) – This is an imaginary line that extends from both sides of where the ball is marked on the field to the sidelines. It represents how far the offense has advanced the ball.
Backfield – Any part of the field directly behind the line of scrimmage.
4. Demonstrate knowledge of flag football by developing three offensive and three defensive plays, and try them in an actual game.

a. Quarterback
b. End (left and right)
c. Center
d. Halfback (left and right)

6. Review the meaning of the referee signals as represented in the SDA-SARC.
7. Review the penalties for each infraction listed in the SDA-SARC.
8. Describe the rule adaptations for flag football that are changed from tackle for safety reasons for each of the following:
a. Fumbles
b. Punting
c. Rushing the quarterback
d. Muffed ball
e. Blocking
9. Define the following terms:
a. Snap
The act of putting the ball into play typically by having the center move it from the LOS into the quarterback’s hand. The player moving the ball is said to be “snapping” while the player getting the ball is said to be “receiving the snap”.
b. Pass
When the quarterback attempts to advance the ball by throwing it from behind the LOS, forward to a receiver.
c. Down
Each team gets a series of 4 downs to advance the ball to the scoring area. A down is the period from the snap of the ball until the end of the play. A team can also earn a first down by advancing the ball beyond certain points in the field of play.
d. Formation
The pattern in which the offensive team lines up at the LOS prior to snapping the ball.
e. Huddle
When the offensive team gathers before a play to set up their formation and plays to be used for that down.
f. Incompletion
When the offense attempts a forward pass but the ball is not caught or is caught outside the field of play. Play will stop and the down is over.
g. Interception
When a defensive player catches a pass thrown by the offense. The defensive player can attempt to carry the ball to opposing team’s end zone for a score, in which case the act is referred to as “a pick 6″.
h. Tackle
This is the action of stopping the ball carrier by pulling a flag from the flag belt. At this, the down is over and play stops.
i. Touchdown
This is a score earned by advancing the all into the end zone. The scoring team receives 6 points.
j. Conversion
After a touchdown the team that scored is allowed a 1 attempt to score bonus points. The bonus can be either 1 or 2 points depending on how the team advances the ball and/or where the team advance the ball from. Typically, 1 point is awarded for scoring from 5 yards out and 2 points are awarded for scoring from 10 yards out. Some leagues instead score 1 point for a running play or 2 points for a passing play.
10. Practice the following skills:
a. Catch the football while using proper form and technique, both stationary and running.
b. Practice three pass patterns such as post, fade, or curl.
c. Using the proper form, practice passing the football to both a stationary and a running target.

h. Demonstrate the skills necessary to defend against a pass.
i. Apply defensive strategies of man to man and zone coverage into a game of flag football.
