Our Mission
The mission of the Oregon Alliance Flag Football League is to unite members of the LBGT and broader communities in camaraderie, understanding, advocacy, and competition. To achieve these goals, we believe it is a fundamental principle to be open and inclusive in all activities, social and competitive. No person shall be excluded on the basis of race, national origin, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or athletic ability. This league is open to all and is driven to be a positive, productive, and uplifting group in Oregon’s LBGT and statewide communities.

Why The OA? 
While there are other LBGT focused sports leagues in the area, our league will use the football field as simply a meeting place for more important work in our community. The football field will bring together people from many different backgrounds and cultures and we hope to use this diversity to make positive change in our community. We will meet each weekend on the football field to build self-confidence, camaraderie and team building while learning new physical skills. Our inclusive and accepting football league will provide a safe place for people to explore a sport from which they felt disenfranchised or intimidated by when growing up. Once our football community grows we hope to continue to build awareness and acceptance of the LBGT community while also eradicating stereotypes about what it means to be a LBGT athlete.

The Oregon Reign is our statewide travel team that travels each fall to the Gay Bowl that is put on by the National Gay Flag Football League. The event brings teams from all over the nation and Canada. This year Gay Bowl​ will be played in New York City from October 10-13, 2019.  We are always looking for local players to come and play with us.  We practice throughout the Summer and are currently working on fundraising to offset costs for our players. We encourage any interested players to get come watch and/or play with our local team The OA or attend a practice in the Summer. Best way to connect with us is through our Facebook Page.

While we are developing our base of players and sponsors to being a league, we field a primarily gay flag football team to play in a predominately straight league in Portland, Oregon.  You can find out more about the league here.  We use league to compete as well as socialize and recruit for our future league and team. We are currently building the roster for our Spring 2019 team.  Games will be Sunday evening at Buckman Field in SE Portland and will run from April to June. If you are interested, please connect with us via email or through our FB page.
