It is the mission of the San Diego American Flag Football League (SDAFFL) to foster the self-respect of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning and Allied persons and to promote respect and understanding of these persons from the community at large through the positive social and athletic enjoyment of American Flag Football.

   Through the flag football league, its events and fundraisers, the SDAFFL hopes to provide an outlet for the general public to interact with and see Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning and Allied persons outside of the stereotypical settings commonly associated with these persons. In so doing, the SDAFFL intends for its efforts to educate the public about Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning and Allied persons in order to foster an understanding and tolerance of these persons. The SDAFFL believes that these efforts play a role in eliminating prejudice and discrimination against Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning and Allied persons.
