Flag football in Bergen County is not a new idea. Over the years there have been several local flag football leagues. The premise behind BCFL is to take all of the positives from the past leagues and to mold them into a premier flag football experience. When forming this league, Rabbi Avi Rosalimsky and Steve Gutlove — a powerhouse pair synonymous with youth sports in Bergen County — partnered with NFL FLAG Football, the official flag football league of the NFL and the largest youth flag football organization in the country. Some benefits of this partnership include official NFL replica reversible jerseys for all participants, a discount on NFL FLAG merchandise and the support of the country’s premier authenticated flag football league.

The league will be divided into four divisions, organized by grade: Pr K-k; 1-2; 3-4; 5-6- and 7-8. Girls and boys are both welcome, but the older divisions will be separated.

All BCFL games will include seven active players on the field during play, and two or three players as substitutes. The BCFL Flag Football rules will be used. A link to the rules is available on this website. Games will be played at beautiful fields located in Bergen County.
