OBSERVE

Look at this sentence and the auxiliar will.

I will go down with this ship.

(me iré abajo con este barco; me hundiré con este barco)

They will meet again.

(ellos se encontrarán otra vez)

She will be appreciated at her new school.

(ella será apreciada en su nueva escuela)

We use the auxiliar verb will for the future

I won´t put my hands up

(no pondré mis manos arriba)

They won´t meet again

(ellos no se encontrarán otra vez)

won´t is the contraction of will + not to form negative sentences.

there will be is the future form of there is and there are

there is a flag (hay una bandera)

there will be a flag (habrá una bandera)
