Adding the sport
Announced, not yet played
17 colleges have announced women's flag football. This directory has not confirmed a played season for them yet. Separately, 142 are already playing.
A programme in its first season has no upperclassmen, which is the shortest route onto a college roster there is. Everything below was read on the school's own announcement, and each row carries the date that announcement was published and the school-stated first season. If a target season has passed, play has not been confirmed in this directory. Where a school did not name a season, this says so rather than filling one in.
