About Team of the Month
Every month the International Federation of American Football will select an "IFAF Team of the Month" to be celebrated on the IFAF website.
The categories for nomination are wide and varied.
A team might have excelled in competition at any level in junior, youth or senior competition, or perhaps have a unique story to tell that is worthy of recognition. The winning team might not be the one that wins a tournament or a championship.
It might be a team that has overcome adversity or demonstrated values and character that are valued beyond the winning and losing of a football game.
If you wish to nominate a "Team of the Month" please send an email to info@ifaf.info
