Girls flag football is seeing amazing growth. According to National Federation of State High School Associations surveys, the number of girls playing flag football rose 86% from 2018-19 to 2022-23, from 11,209 players to 20,875. “I’m confident — obviously not 100% yet, but confident — it will be an IHSA (Illinois High School Association) sport next year,” said Rachel Karos, Willowbrook’s co-head coach.
