NFL FLAG Football Middle School Curriculum
This NFL FLAG Football curriculum was created for use in middle school physical education classes. The activities in this curriculum are appropriate for use with students between grades 6-8 (ages 11-14) and are designed to be delivered during a standard 40 minute physical education class over the course of two weeks (or 10 lessons).
