UNITED STATES FLAG FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION
EVOLUTION, HISTORY & DIRECTION
Our predecessor organization, The United States Touch and Flag Football Association (USTFFA) was founded in 1976, over a quarter of a century ago. Its original purpose was to help standardize the sport of touch and flag football. It hoped to do this by organizing independent state flag football associations as Members, which are comprised of independent flag football leagues. The concept was each state would hold an annual championship tournament consisting of the top teams from the leagues in their respective state. The top teams from each state would then compete for a true national championship.
Our founders at that time were involved with the 9-man, ineligible, full-contact version of both touch and flag. Thus, it became the only supported version. Never more than 7 or 8 states at any one time participated in the USTFFA annual tournament
