Women’s Flag Football Comes to Cypress

Cypress College Athletics announced last week that women’s flag football will be coming to campus for spring 2026.

“Southern California has quickly become a leader in growing girls flag football at the youth and high school levels. This is an opportunity for Cypress College to help grow the sport and provide more opportunities for female student-athletes at the college level,” Athletic Director Wes McCurtis said in the Athletics story.

The search is on for a head coach. They will both need to build the program and keep it on par with other Charger athletic programs. Click here for the head coach job posting.
