The federated council of the California Interscholastic Federation is expected to vote today on the plan at a meeting in Long Beach.

The federated council of the California Interscholastic Federation - the statewide body that governs high school athletics - is expected to vote Friday on the plan at a meeting in Long Beach. If the measure passes, flag football would be an official high school sport for girls in the nation's most populous state for the upcoming 2023-24 year.

Other states have already added girls' flag football to school athletic programs, including Alabama and Nevada. New York state's public high school athletic association took a similar step this week and expects to host the first state championship for girls flag football in the spring of 2024. Paul Schmidt said being part of a start-up has been exciting for his 14-year-old daughter, who had never played flag football before she tried out for the team at Redondo Union High School - one of the schools participating in the league. Making the sport official, he said, would make it easier to secure field time and give a boost to a tight-knit team of girls that has bonded around starting something new.
