University of Hawaii athletics director Matt Elliott spoke to Guava Press Media about the possibility of adding women’s flag football<\/a>. Elliott stated that flag football is in “step one” of the exploration process. <\/p>\n

“Some parts of it feel kind of easy, like they can play on the field. We already have a field, right? You don’t need to build a new arena; you can play in the spring. But we don’t have a locker room; we don’t have an athletics trainer; we don’t have an academic staff member to support them; we don’t have a team doctor. If you think about adding a new team, you have to make sure you have the capacity to do all of those things the right way because you can’t bring in 25 new athletes and say ‘you got to tape yourselves up’. That’s not how D1 works at this level.I would love to do it. I would love to have a team, but it takes work and it takes money, so that’s a project we’re exploring. If we were ready to say ‘okay, flag football is next,’ then we would see how does that position us from an athletics standpoint.”<\/p>\n

Randolph College (VA) Athletic Director Tom Galbraith spoke with The News & Advance in a recent interview. Galbraith was candid about the school’s addition of women’s flag football, as well as other sports added in the last five years. The school is seeking to boost enrollment by adding sports, but has also added undergraduate and graduate programs to help add students. The low startup expenses were also a factor in the addition of flag football.<\/p>\n

On the hire of Andy Sinclair as the flag football program’s inaugural head coach, Galbraith conceded that only one applicant had experience coaching at the collegiate level. Sinclair was previously the men’s lacrosse coach at Randolph. Galbraith expects the team to be competitive immediately when the program launches in the 2027-28 academic year<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Randolph is a member of the NCAA Division III Old Dominion Athletic Conference, which currently does not sponsor women’s flag football. Galbraith confirmed previous reporting<\/a> that the ODAC is working towards sponsoring the sport when six conference members add women’s flag football.
