Transcript

A flag pull is not just how the play ends. It is a defensive stat.

And in flag football, that stat matters.

When the other team has the ball in StatHawk, score the defensive result. Choose Flag Pull, then choose the defender who made the stop.

That one tap sequence gives the player credit while the play is still fresh.

And if the stop happens behind the line, do not treat it like a normal pull. Choose Flag Pull for Loss.

A pull after a gain and a pull behind the line are not the same story.

After the game, those plays show up in the defensive stats.

That is why you score it live.

The defender who ends the play should not disappear from the box score.
