Photos: Broncos, RCX Sports host NFL FLAG Regional Tournament

The Denver Broncos and RCX Sports, the official operating partner of NFL FLAG, hosted an NFL FLAG Regional Tournament at Aurora Sports Park on Saturday, which marked the third time Colorado has served as a host site for a regional tournament. The pool included 60 total teams, with 53 representing the state of Colorado. The tournament features competitive and recreation divisions for boys and girls broken down to 8U through 17U age groups. This year's tournament will feature 14 girls only teams at various age divisions, the most since regional tournament play began in Colorado. Nine of the 14 girls teams who will play in the 17U division are high school programs who competed in Colorado's inaugural girls high school flag season last fall, launched by the Denver Broncos Foundation.
