I'm coaching a youth flag football team. The kids are 7-8 and we have a pretty good team, I'm just looking for something interesting and fun to add to our playbook.
Basic rules are 6-on-6, defense can only rush after 10-second count unless there is a handoff, then they can rush immediately.
Our best plays are end arounds and short crossing passes over the middle or the qb rolling down the line of scrimmage and hitting short passes from that.

Also, the qb cannot run.

several things:
hook and ladder- throw a pass, reciever hands off/ pitches to another reciever running an route underneath
wr screen-throw to wr behind line of scrimmage, he runs, blockers out in front
"panther" screen- not sure why it's called this, but it's a variation on the wr
screen where the wr lines up behind 4 other players at snap, qb throws to wr, & 4 players in front block for him
statue of liberty-wr screen fake, rb takes ball & runs other way
wr screen pass- qb rolls out , throws across field to wr, who throws the ball downfield to a reciever running a streak route (staight down the field) you could change the formation and also have a reciever run a slant/ in route across the field. make sure 1st pass is backwords, otherwise it's illegal
wr reverse pass- alternate of wr screen pass, hand off instead of throw to wr
wr reverse- hand off to wr on an end around, then hand off again going the other way. alternatly, hand off to a rb, who hands off to a wr
good luck!!

It's a kind of slick but really funny defensive play. At the beginning of the game, we had the ball. The center crouched down and then before anything could happen the quarterback yells "that's the wrong ball" several times. Then she told the center to hand her the ball which the center did by passing it to her between the legs. She grabs the ball and started to walk slowly all the way to the sideline asking where the right ball is. When she got to the sideline, she took off running to the endzone and made a touchdown. We were really careful that she never said stop, wait, hold-on, etc. It was all completely legal and the referee allowed it. Another defensive thing we did, was when the quarterback got the ball, the entire line stood up and hooked arms, the quarterback then got right behind the line and the line closed in to make a circle around the QB so the flag couldn't be reached and they walked all the way to the endzone without anyone touching them. The referee usually allows that one so long as nobody trips and accidently grabs a player from the other team to steady themselves.

HB toss.
i used this in a flag football Touniment. it's useful in flag football because after the hand off everyone tends to rush. when they all rush in (if they do) then a few receivers are open, and just have him chuck it to him. if they don't then there should be some room to run up.
another one is a flea flicker. once the hand off happens, and they rush in, the person with the ball tosses it back and throws it to a open reciver...assuming there is one. if there isn't then again, they should be a hole because someone did not rush in to try to contain the run.
these plays i use as a trick play, but if the oppoent is not tricked then there are backup plans

Tear a page out of Boise St. play book with the Hook and Ladder. In college during dorm flag games, we kicked butt. Only once did anyone catch on.
Try that or a Flea flicker.

Have the wide receiver go out only about 5 yards, and then cut across the middle at about 90% speed. If the receiver does a decent cut, with hands put up, if playing man coverage, the cornerback will usually come up for the play. If done correctly, the receiver can turn, and head straight up field. Toss the ball over the cornerback/safety, who should come up for the play, and it is an easy touchdown.

if u have a fast QB u may wanna try a bootleg/fake end around, which will get the defense pursuing one way while his fake handoff leads them that way and he goes the other way
