MAIN SAFETY RULES: WE PLAY ABSOLUTLEY ZERO CONTACT FLAG FOOTBALL! All players should make foul calls when appropriate. Players should respect and not argue over calls. An organizer will resolve any disputes. 1) NO MOVING BLOCKS: Screen blocks only. This means you must stand still in place to create an obstacle for the defense AND the opposing players must have time to adjust to your screen. 2) NO OVER THE BACK PLAYS: The space above a player is theirs alone. You may not leave your feet to come over or through the back another player. 3) NO HANDS UP PAST LINE OF SCRIMMAGE: To protect the QB from hand/arm injuries, once a rusher crosses the line of scrimmage, they may only go for the QB's flag and may not attempt to bat the football or block the pass. A penalty will be called if a defender raises his hands after crossing the line of scrimmage. Any offensive gain will be kept. 4) NO CONTACT WITH A DEFENSELESS RECEIVER: A player is defenseless until they have caught the ball and become a "runner." This penalty is called when a defensive player closes on a receiver from behind too fast and makes contact with with a receiver as the receiver turns to run up the field.

BASIC RULES: We play 100% no-contact flag football with NO taunting or other aggressive behavior. We're here to have fun and make new friends. Play will start at the 5 yard line. Teams have 4 downs to reach the halfway point; then another 4 downs to reach the end zone. The offense may rush at any time outside of 5 yards from the 1st down or end zone. Men receive 6 points for a TD. To encourage the involvement of women in scoring plays, women receive 6 points plus an automatic 2 point conversion. In addition, female players are guaranteed to receive at least 3 "targets" per game. A target is when a player is the primary receiver or runner during a play. Teams can attempt a 1 or 2 point conversion after a male touch down; 1 point from 5 yards out and 2 points from 10 yards out. The offense can only run ONCE per four downs. The run can be used to avoid a rush, the blitz, or gain yards -- but it can only be used once. Players can NOT run within five yards of a first down or touch down. This reduces player contact. The defense may rush after a 4 second digital timer count or a 7/1000 verbal count. The defense may blitz 1 time every 4 downs.

FREE PARKING: The best place to find free parking is on 2nd, 3rd, or 4th street near the corner of Marine Street. If you walk up Marine toward the ocean you will walk straight into our BEACH FOOTBALL FIELD.

PAY PARKING: There is metered parking on Main Street just North of Marine Street, or you can park all day for $9 ($12 between Memorial day and Labor day) at the Rose Street beach parking lot. Drive down Rose toward the beach and you will drive directly into the parking lot. Walk North up the boardwalk in the direction of the Santa Monica Pier. We will be on the sand just North of the parking lot in front of lifeguard tower 29.
