2024 Flag Football Week 12: Playoffs Brackets, At A Glance

The Division I/III quarterfinals, and D-II/D-IV semifinal bracket pairings are set for November 16 and 19, respectively.

Peaking for the playoffs is D-I No. 12 seed Poway as they bested 5 Mission Hills to face 4 Mira Mesa, while D-II No. 11 San Dieguito topped 6 Patrick Henry, then 3 San Marcos, to earn a semifinal with 2 Westview. In D-III, No. 12 Granite Hills upset 5 Rancho Buena Vista, and now meets 4 Escondido Charter. The rest of the brackets held close to form.

Go here for complete season game schedules and results.

The Division and Seeding selection process divides the top 48 MaxPreps/Calpreps** state-ranked local teams into 4 equal size groups. The top 12 teams become Division I, the next 12 become Division II, and so on.

The top 4 seeds in each division get a first round bye and teams 5-12  are paired into a standard structure, similar to the national collegiate tackle football 12-team playoffs. Some minor adjustments avoid first-round same-league pairings.
