MONTGOMERY - The Alabama Community College Conference (ACCC) announced the addition of women’s flag football to its athletics offerings on Tuesday. “This is up there with one of the most exciting program additions we’ve had over the past decade. It's a good day when we create more opportunities for our female student-athletes,” said ACCC Commissioner Dean Myrick. “Flag football has exploded across the state at the high school level, and we want to capitalize on that. It’s a discussion we’ve had for a few years, and I’m proud it’s come to fruition.” Women’s flag football is among the newest athletics offerings sanctioned by the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA), and the ACCC will offer the sport to female student-athletes, beginning with the 2025-2026 academic year. Tuesday’s announcement was conducted at the Cramton Bowl with participating college officials in attendance, including presidents, deans and athletic directors.
