Northern Rocket Football League, Inc. Mission Statement

“Rocket Football” and “Flag Football” and “Cheerleading” are recreational programs for the benefit of children, conducted by interested adults.   Although any sport is competitive, this competitiveness is not emphasized, at least in the perspective of winning or losing.   The primary purpose of “Rockets” is that every child is placed on a team and every player participates as equally as possible.   Rules are designed to provide a safe environment for the majority of players.   Believing that each game is incentive enough to provide a competitive atmosphere, there are no official standings kept and no championships awarded.   Teams are constructed through the league-sponsored draft process *, and in scheduling an effort is made to match teams of similar strengths.

* Flag Football teams are constructed by an area’s Field Director and are not subject to NRFL draft regulations or requirements.   Flag Football games are scheduled by the individual areas and they are solely responsible for such contests.
