Competitive Flag Football - Fall 2024
Teams Forming Based on Registration
Based on registration results, the Varsity team will not form. Instead, we plan to form two Coed Middle School teams (Middle School Beast and Middle School Bold), which will be determined based on tryouts. Participation in tryouts is required to be considered for a team, and cuts are expected.
About Meridian Flag Football
This is Meridian’s first season of Flag Football. All of our competitions will be within our league – Texas Charter School Academic and Athletic League (TCSAAL). We will have practices and host home games close to the Meridian campus at Rock Field. Away games could be anywhere in the Central Texas area.

Registration
Registration ($52.30) is NOW CLOSED. It ended at 9 p.m. on Wednesday, May 8.
Late registration will be available for $104.60 starting on Wednesday, July 24 and ends at 9 p.m. on Wednesday, July 31. Late registration will not be available for teams with insufficient registration during the regular registration window. Those teams have been canceled for the upcoming season due to insufficient interest and registration. No registrations will be accepted after the late registration window.
Lettering & Letter Jackets
Lettering in an extracurricular activity is reserved for the highest level of participation. For Flag Football, this means Varsity Flag Football players. Because a Varsity team is not forming for the 2024 season, lettering in Flag Football will not be available for the 2024-2025 academic year; however, letter jacket patches representing football and flag football will remain reserved in the hope that a Varsity team will form in the fall of 2025.
