Thanks in advance to anyone who replies to this...

According to The Manual, Section 8.2:
Quote:

FLAG – A colored (red or blue) bicycle flag used to display ALLIANCE assignments during a MATCH. The flag itself is made of a triangular piece of colored plastic or fabric, measuring approximately 9 inches tall by 11 inches long. The flag is mounted at the end of a 1/4 inch diameter fiberglass flagpole, approximately 36 inches long. The flagpole will run through a rubber stopper, which will be sized to fit in the top of the flag holder (as specified in Rule <R17>). The purpose of the stopper is to help prevent the FLAG from becoming dislodged from the flag holder during the MATCH.
