The 2025 NAIA flag football season was the component of the 2025 college football season organized by the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) in the United States. It was the fifth season of the NAIA sponsoring flag football as a varsity women's sport, in contrast with traditional, full-contact college football which is played almost exclusively by men. With 21 schools playing in this season, it remained classified as an "emerging" sport by the NAIA.
