**Important Announcement: Team Bans, Player Sanctions, and Social Media Conduct in The Elite Series**
The Elite Series is preparing to announce significant disciplinary actions involving team bans and player sanctions related to fighting during recent events. Upholding the integrity and sportsmanship of our league is essential, and the UFFL (United Flag Football League) is dedicated to addressing any behavior that undermines these values.
In addition to the bans for teams like OTF (Toledo) and DXB, any internet and social media trolling related to our flag football events or league will also be subject to discipline. While we respect the right to free speech, it's crucial to remember that our league has a business to protect. We encourage everyone to be mindful of their words and actions online, as they can have real consequences.
The decision to ban specific teams and individuals is part of our commitment to fostering a respectful and safe environment for all players, coaches, and fans. More names will be added to the UFFL website's banned list, reflecting our zero-tolerance policy toward violence and unsportsmanlike conduct.
As we move forward, we urge the community to engage positively and constructively. Further details will be shared as The Elite Series and the UFFL continue to address these important matters. Thank you for your understanding and support in maintaining the integrity of our league.
