The Future of Women's Flag Football? | Lacie Nemchick on Nebraska, Manning Passing Academy & QB Training/Ep. 22

In Episode 22 of **Flags on Fire**, I sit down with **Lacie Nemchick**, one of the nation's premier young flag football quarterbacks and one of Arizona's fastest-rising stars. Already holding multiple college offers—including a **Power Four offer from Nebraska**—Lacie shares the journey that has taken her from playing on all-boys recreational teams to becoming one of the faces of girls' flag football in Arizona. We discuss her development as a quarterback, how working with **Slingit QB Coaching** transformed her mechanics and confidence, and why competing against boys early in her career helped shape the player she is today. Lacie also gives a behind-the-scenes look at her experience attending the prestigious **Manning Passing Academy**, where she learned from Hall of Fame quarterbacks, elite college players, and some of the best quarterback coaches in the country. She reflects on seeing the number of girls at the camp grow dramatically—a sign of just how quickly women's flag football is evolving. During our **Coach's Corner**, Lacie breaks down one of her favorite offensive concepts and walks through exactly how she reads safeties, corners, leverage, and pressure before the snap. She also explains why today's elite flag football quarterbacks must master both traditional timing concepts and the ability to throw accurately while rolling out under pressure.
