Scottish Claymores - American Football in Scotland
Claymores Grassroots Football

TIRED OF WATCHING?

BE A PLAYER! BE A COACH!


The game of American football is not just exciting to watch…it's great to play! The Scottish Claymores are heavily committed to developing the game at a Grassroots level all over the country…for all ages and abilities!

For young and old alike there is no better entry level to the game than the thrills and skills of NFL 5-on-5 flag football.

NFL 5on5 Flag football is a fast-paced fun version of American football for boys and girls. There is strictly no contact and tackling to end a play is achieved by removing a flag attached to a belt worn round a players waist.

The ball can be moved in the usual ways - passing and running - and all the basic fundamental skills and complex tactics are used. It's also a great way to learn to be a coach!

If you are over 14 and feel that the full contact version of the game is more for you then there are a number of Junior, Youth, University and Senior Tackle teams who will provide you with all the coaching and protective equipment that you need.

Inside this section you will find all you need to know about getting involved in playing or coaching. Have Fun!
