Scarsdale High School

Girls' Flag Football

Welcome to Raider Girls' Flag Football

Scarsdale High School will field Varsity and JV Girls' Flag Football teams.

Varsity is for the better skilled players regardless of grade level. JV is for freshmen, sophomores, or juniors who need more time to develop their skills.

  • Varsity Coach:  Thomas Newkirk, tnewkirk@scarsdaleschools.org

    Varsity Assistant Coach:  Mindy Genovese, mgenovese@scarsdaleschools.org

    JV Head Coach:  Chris Pierro, cpierro@scarsdaleschools.org

    JV Assistant Coach:  James Serafin, jserafin@scarsdaleschools.org

  • In order to tryout, players must have been cleared through the gold card process.   

    Tryouts will take place at Scarsdale High School, either on the field or in the High School Gyms.  Times will be determined by field availability and weather conditions.  

    Players are expected to be present at all tryout sessions.  Missing sessions will be incorporated into the coach's evaluation of players for the Varsity team.

  • Girls' Flag Football is a commitment of about 2-3 hours per day, 5-6 days a week with occasional Saturday games and competitions.  It is our expectation that athletes will be present for all team tryouts, scrimmages, practices, games, and tournaments. 

    The regular season ends in May for all teams. Varsity is then eligible for post-season play.
