Get ready to dive into the exhilarating world of Girls Flag Football—the hottest sport sweeping the nation! The West Orange PAL is pumped to be a trailblazer as one of New Jersey’s very first leagues to roll out this dynamic program! We’re proud to join forces with the New Jersey Suburban Youth Football League, where vibrant town programs come together, all fueled by an electrifying passion for the game and the empowerment of young women grades 4-8.
This league is more than just a platform for play; it’s a nurturing ground for friendship, safety, and athletic development. With a focus on fun, we emphasize the fundamentals of this exciting sport while fostering camaraderie and healthy competition. Our thrilling playoff system, culminating in a Super Bowl and an 8th Grade All-Star Game, aims to ignite a spark in young athletes of all skill levels, encouraging them to embody the values of respect, teamwork, determination, and sportsmanship.
Under the inspiring leadership of Andrew Mazurek, Head Varsity Coach of WOHS and dedicated PAL Board member, our girls flag football program isn’t just about honing skills; it’s about building champions of character! Together, we’re on a mission to empower each athlete to soar to new heights both on the field and beyond.
