We continue the conversation from last month’s topic
| “Players officiating in their own tournament”Part 2
We got so much feedback from last month’s show, that we bring the topic back on this month’s show to hear more comments. IWFFA encourages players to officiate in tournaments they play in competitively. Then when a player’s team is not playing, she can officiate in the tournament.

When the IWFFA introduced flag football to the Scandinavians, back in the 90’s, there were no flag football teams, coaches, even american tackle football
was not so popular and so the women had to play, coach and officiate themselves.
The players themsevles officiating was excellent – The outcome was fantastic!
The Scandinavian tournaments have always incorporated their own players officiating the tournament games when their team is not competing
USA players may think of this as an unfair advantage.
However, actualy, players officiating their own games changed the flavor of the sport games and teams camaraderie
Their games are friendly, competitive and never once was there an unfair advantage our call which teams protested due to unfair advantage
The IWFFA offers our members – officiating clinics – for free – in order to create better players, high quality officials
and the IWFFA allows players to officiate in tournaments they are competing in as players .
It this controversial?
What are the Advantages
What are the Disadvantages
You can weigh in with your thoughts and comments

I have been away from reporting on women’s tackle football for a very long time. I first started WFB Talk (Women’s Football Talk) in November, 2006. The WPFL (Women’s Professional Football League) and NWFA (National Women’s Football Association) were still around. First with the blog and then the internet radio site, Blogtalkradio, where we did a live broadcast show every Sunday throughout the year, not just the season, but the whole year. I stopped in 2012 with the show, doing my show WFB Talk, that is. I still upload shows for the IWFFA (International Women’s Flag Football Association) on the WFB Talk site though. Oscar Lopez, of Gridiron Beauties helped host the show for me during 2012 and then when I finally left he created his show, which is #1 in reporting women’s football. WFB Talk had four co-hosts. There was Beebe, Meg, Robin and myself. Our very first show was nine years ago on the “History of Women’s Tackle Football”. Over the years we had many wonderful guests and great interviews.
The reason to why I am bringing this up is that I want to return back to reporting on women’s tackle football. Start from scratch and earn my way back. I will be starting a new show using a pseudonym rather than my actual name and I will be handling only one league. I’ve been away much too long to jump with both feet in.
I write this publicly because I don’t want you to think that I am deceiving you, but rather trying to work my way back into the game.
Hope to see you “Over-the-air-waves”.
Cheers

Salem Freedom Bowl – June 25 – 26, 2016 – Salem Oregon
8 on 8 and 5 on 5 flag football style of play
Oregon Flag Football league show cases 6 big tournaments each year – throughout different parts of Oregon
Trish Wall plays for the 8 on 8 team: “Legit”, who are undefeated champs and ranked #1 in the northwest. She also fills in to play 5 on 5 for another team in the tournament: Roseberg Respect .
In our conversation with Trish she explains why she decided to design her own set of flags, her inspiration to grow the sport of flag football in her region. Trish Wall and Nick Davis, together have started up: “Man Up Oregon” and “Women Up Oregon” as well as the: Oregon RVFFL women’s flag football league, and they are now part of the west coast union which is a partnership with California, Washington and Oregon. Trish and Nick Davis travel up and down highway I 5 to other parts of Oregon to teach drills and skills needed to learn in order to play to start up new teams of flag football
The Salem Freedom Bowl: Teams competing (6 women’s) Eugene Reign, Grants Pass Legit, Grants Pass Tight Endz, Medford Empire, Salem Blitz, Seattle 20Pick6. The tournament has two divisions: Top Flight Division (Grants Pass Tight Endz will take championship) and Competitive Division (Seattle 20Pick6 will take the championship) and allows for teams to borrow players during the competition in order to compete. “Players just want to play, and get better in the sport” says Trish. Teams have so much camaraderie amongst each other. The league started co-ed, then went gender specific with 5 on 5, and today offers both 5 on 5 and 8 on 8 style of play. Trish says 5 on 5 builds skills for the 8 on 8. “All styles of flag football can only help each other”.
Laura Lanigan – A “Legit” player talks about the 8 on 8 program, 5 on 5 fading and we get a little bit into the “dynamics” of female athletes vs. male athletes.
Coach Simon Lindsay – of the Lady Legit Team – talks about this team, which is a family. The differences between female and male flag football players. Women do not make as many mistakes as men during crunch time or play offs due to ego and lack of focus. Lady Legit players honor decisions coach Simon makes. “The Greatest Teams always Loose”…. find out why.
Diana Bahr and Mellisa Zahn from the Empire Team in Medford Oregon
talk to us right off the field with a 14 – 8 win. Winning is everything, no mercy – this is flag football… not ballet. It’s important to keep your drive no matter how weak their competitor team may be. Tips for the new player: Watch football and play whatever flag football you can play.
Erica Duley – Captain of Ladies Reign of Eugene, Oregon.
Teams are really tight, they mix and mingle. The Lady Regins are a very diverse team – players on the team are so different. They play both 5 on 5 and 8 on 8. 80% of the team are mothers, who really have made such a commitment, bringing their children to their practices. All the team’s have male coaches and coaches are allowed to be on the field during the tournament helping teams call their plays.
Lady Savages or Clement Falls, Oregon
Crystal Myra, Maria Grey, Raquela Johnson, Adrienna, Jacqueline Williams, Rosaria Miller, Cathy Torguesine, Coach Austin – a new team playing just one year. They are using the tournament as a learning experience. They like everything about flag football, the bonding, the flag football family. Their rival team is “Legit ” only because they are undefeated champs.
Roseberg Respect Team – Somari Rodrow, Sara, Katy and Stacy – are team mates and coached by Nick Davis who started the team back in October 2016. They play 5 on 5, with contact for the first 5 yards. Even though their team does not play 8 on 8, they filled in an empty spot on the 8 on 8 division. Great sports willing to help the event anyway they can.
Nick Davis – co-founder of the league and tournament talks how he and Trish started up all the teams, the west coast union, starting from co-ed, to gender leagues, from 5 on 5 to now in addition 8 on 8. Nick also shares how he believes men’s flag football may be destroying the game. Regarding his female athletes, after one year, the women should be able to coach their own teams and not be so dependent on the men. Nick is driven to building the female flag football player to be independent, less dependent on the men. Giving women the tools, to then go out and be leaders.
