Flag Football

Flag football is a non-contact version of American Football, with similarities to tag rugby where tackles are made by ‘flagging’ players. Flag football takes away the aggression and big hits and focuses more on the skill set of a player. The Cowboys won Emerald Bowl II (All-Ireland Championship) in 2016 and Emerald Bowl V in 2018 alongside the Cowboys B Team winning the 2019 Glas Bowl. The team travels to various international competitions such as the Champions Bowl (Copenhagen 2016, Vienna 2017 and Salou 2018) and Flagging New Year (Glasgow 2018 and 2019) to compete against the best club teams in Europe. This is an excellent way to learn the techniques of the sport, as well as having great fun!
