Most camps are open to rising 2nd–7th graders (boys and girls), with select sites offering focused groups for 2nd–5th graders, 6th–9th graders (referred to as “Old Dawgs”), and Girls-Only sessions for 3rd–8th graders. The Elite league is for rising 4th–10th graders, and the program states that it serves K–12th graders, boys and girls, at all experience levels.
Parent feedback includes comments such as: “It is by far the most organized, well-managed league we have ever joined… But most importantly, he has fun!” from Jennifer Bernstein, and “We are beyond thrilled with Flagstar – it’s exceeded all our expectations,” from a Flag Star parent. Other parents describe it as “the absolute highlight of our sports schedule… a ton of positive energy, great coaching and — most importantly — FUN!” according to Kiersten Campbell, and “Great people, great sport, great energy! I cannot say enough good things,” from Tom Repke in Virginia.
