AMICC NFL Flag Football action Saturday.
The NFL capped off its season finale on the largest sports stage in the United States with the Super Bowl. Millions of football fans watched as the Baltimore Ravens defeated the San Francisco 49 ‘ers. But for football fans on the Island, NFL flag football still has a long way to go.
Halfway through the Anna Maria Island Community Center’s Flag Football season it is still anyone’s game on the road to the Super Bowl. There are four competitive co-ed divisions: Adult, 14-17-year-old, 11-13-year-old and 8-10-year-old.
At the end of the regular season schedule, there are divisional champions, but every team will make the playoffs and have a chance to be crowned Super Bowl champs. Seeding for the playoffs is based upon the final regular season team records.
All four age groups still have undefeated teams. In the Adult division, the 5-0 Florida Discount Signs Colts will square off this week against the 4-0 Island Sun Bills. In the 14-17-year-old division, the 4-0 West Coast Surf Shop Buccaneers will try to keep their perfect record intact when they face three divisional foes this upcoming week.
In the 11-13-year-old division, the 4-0 Ross Built Construction Dolphins look to remain flawless with their high scoring offense lighting up the scoreboard. In the 8-10-year-old division, the 5-0 LPAC Cardinals are rolling past opponents, but have four other teams in their age group right on their tails.
Playoffs begin in March and the excitement mounts. The big game maybe over, but Island football fans can still enjoy plenty of gridiron action. The Center has games every night of the week and usually all day on Saturday. You may not be able to be an armchair quarterback watching the game on the flat screen, but there is nothing like the roar of the crowd at a live football game.
