Report

Finland’s Turun Trojans easily won the European Football League Scandinavian Cup (American Football) with a 41-7 victory over hosts Cophenhagen Towers in the Final. The Trojans had defeated T-Town Tigers from Eskilstuna in Sweden in the Semi-Finals, and the Towers had won the other Semi-final over fellow Danes, the Dansk All-Stars, who were assembled at the last minute due to the late withdrawal of the Norwegian entrant, Askey Lynx.

Report

The first American Football Leagues in Europe were US Navy and Army matches in France during World War I. The American Expeditionary Force Football League was played from 1918-1919.

During World War II, US Soldiers based in Northern Ireland and Britain played in the European Theater of Operations Football Championship from 1942 to 1944, with one match, the Arab Bowl played in Oran, Algeria.

The United States Air Force in Europe (USAFE) had a Football League with a Continental Sports Conference (Germany and France), United Kingdom Sports Conference and Mediterranean Sports Conference (Italy, Spain and Greece). It played during the Cold War from 1951-1993, and unlike the WWI and WWII Championships which were basically “Turkey Bowl”-type Elimination Championships (so-named because they frequently took place at Thanksgiving), this League played an 8-10 game regular season, followed by a Conference Championship, and USAFE Final.

The US Army in Europe (USAREUR) had a league among players in Noerthern italy from 1974-1975, and from 1976 to 1986 included Italian teams, forming the first leagues in Europe that had European players.

The Intercontinental Football League was set up in 1972 following the success of the film M*A*S*H about US Soldiers, which featured a climactic end sequence of an American Football match. The league had sold enough franchises for a 6-team league by 1973, but was delayed due to the oil crisis and subsequent terror campaign by the Red Brigades and Baader-Meinhof Gang. It was eventually cancelled altogether after consultation with people in Washington, DC.

The Intercontinental Football League, however, wasn’t finished, and from 1976 to 1978 played a European Championship featuring touring American Teams. The Era ended after the End of the Cold War, and by then American Football Teams, with European players were being set up in almost every country.

Report

As well as playing in the European League – Continental Conference in 1993 as the Euro Spartans, Terry Smith’s Manchester Spartans organised the European League – UK Conference. Teams were named after NFL teams, but the prefix Euro- added to avoid confusion. All matches were played at Leicester’s Saffron Lane Stadium.

While the Spartans themselves didn’t play in the League, there were four teams: EuroSteelers, EuroRaiders, EuroBears and EuroMonarchs, the last one named after the London Monarchs, who had played in the World League of American Football – a AAA Development League of the NFL – from 1991 to 1992 (and would again play in 1995 when the League returned as a Europe-only league.

The UK Conference had a unusual format – the four teams played a two-game schedule with all four teams qualifying for the playoffs, rather than a 3-game schedule followed by a Final. The EuroSteelers had finished top of the Standings with two wins from two, but lost to the EuroBears (who had lost both matches in the regular season) in the Semi-Finals. The EuroBears then went on to claim the Championship with a 14-12 victory over the EuroRaiders in the Final.

The Cork Admirals 2nds outran the Dublin Dragons and a combination of balanced temperament and ability to take scoring opportunities saw them win comfortably 42-0. Martin Mulrey, Shame Galway and Ross McCullagh each scored a touchdown, but it was wide receiver Dave Barry that did most of the damage to the Dragons, as he found the endzone of three occasions. Martin Mulrey added a two-point conversion, and Shane Galway added two two-pointers as the Cork Admirals 2nds ran away with the match 42-0.

Season Report

Cork Admirals 2nds won the Christy Farrell Memorial Tournament on 2nd September 2007, held in Edenderry Rugby Club, Co. Offaly. They beat the Edenderry Soldiers 28-0 in the opening game and then defeated Dublin dragons 2nds 42-0. They were scheduled to take part in a third match against the Tallaght Outlaws 2nds but a combination of a serious injury to a player and the torrential rain making the playing surface unsafe led to the rest of the tournament being cancelled and the Admirals declared winners. Wide Receiver Dave Barry was the star for the Admirals, scoring a total of four touchdowns.

Report

The Champions Professional Indoor Football League was created on August 10, 2012, when representatives from six cities met in Council Bluffs, IA, with the intention of forming an Indoor American Football League. The teams were Sioux City Bandits (IA), Lincoln Haymakers (NA), Wichita Wild (KS), Oklahoma Defenders (OA), Kansas City Renegades (MI) and MidMissouri Outlaws (Sedalia, MI). They were joined for their first season by Omaha Beef (NA), Salina Bombers (KS), Bloomington Edge (IS) and Kansas Koyotes (Topeka, KS). The League was based entirely within the Prairie States and Southwestern Mid-West.

Wichita Wild defeated Salina Bombers 37-24 to win the Championship Game in 2013 and in the 2014 title game they defeated Sioux City Bandits 46-41. The League lost MidMissouri Outlaws and Kansas City Renegades after the 2013 season, but gained a new team in Dodge City, nicknamed the Law.

The League merged with teams from the Lone Star Football League in 2015, becoming Champions Indoor Football.
