About the league

What is Nacho Ball?

A touring flag-football show with eight snack-bar-silly teams, show rules and players who perform. Fans pay for the show, not the standings.

“Nacho average” = not your average.

Say it out loud. Nacho Average Football is the whole idea in four words: real athletes, real competition and a game rebuilt from scratch so every minute is worth watching.

No three-hour broadcasts. No punts. No kickoffs. No standing around. Just trick plays, chaos rules and a crowd that is part of the cast.

One flat priceFans first. No surprise fees.
60-minute clockTwo 30-minute halves on a running clock. No new drive after 60:00.
Built for highlightsIf a moment can't be understood in 15 seconds, it doesn't make the show.
Safe by designNon-contact flag, no kickoffs, no tackling.

  5. Run by the fansKids' races, mascot battles and Flagrant Fred's Court.

Quick questions

Is it tackle football?

No. It's flag football: down when your flag is pulled. No tackling, no diving, no stiff-arms, and no kickoffs.

Is it real competition?

Yes. Real athletes, real scores, real rivalries. The show is built around the game, not instead of it.

Is it family friendly?

Built for it. Kids run plays, call plays and race mascots, and the game clock is a tight 60 minutes.

When is the first show?
