A new opportunity for girls interested in football is taking root in Glens Falls. Glens Falls High School is launching a varsity-level flag football program with ambitions to elevate it to full varsity status by 2027. This initiative aims to provide more competitive avenues for female athletes in the North Country.
The program, currently in its early stages, is designed to foster a more inclusive culture within the school’s football program. Coach Darrin Beasley expressed excitement about the potential impact, noting that while the initial group is freshmen, the long-term goal of varsity status by 2027 will create pathways for more girls to participate in the sport at a higher level.
Though Glens Falls is technically located in the North Country region, this development offers a promising update for sports fans and participants across Saratoga County, highlighting the growing opportunities for girls’ football in the area.
