RENTON, WA (December 4, 2025) – The WIAA Executive Board has approved Federal Way Memorial Stadium as the host site for the final rounds of the inaugural 2026 Girls Flag Football State Championships. The Association extends its appreciation to all schools and facilities that submitted bids. The depth of proposals reflects the strong statewide support for the continued growth of Girls Flag Football.
To accommodate the number of teams expected to qualify in the first championship year, the Executive Board also approved a one-year tournament format that will span two weekends.

The State Opening Rounds and Quarterfinals will be hosted at the closest approved site to the No. 1-4 seeds. This model mirrors the format currently used for State Baseball.

Federal Way Memorial Stadium will host all final-round contests.
The WIAA Executive Board is expected to finalize official allocation counts, including State Tournament sizes for each classification, later this month.
