Season and Playoffs Report

Regular Season Report (29 April – 26 June 2022)

In an extremely competitive 2022 Fútbol Americano de México FAM-YOX regular season five teams finished within a game of the league champions: Rojos CDMX, Parrilleros Monterrey and Marlins Los Cabos all finished on 6-2 and Caudillos Chihuahua and Tequileros Jalisco both finishing on 5-3. With only four teams making the playoffs Tequileros Jalisco were the unlucky one of the five. Pioneros Queretaro and Jefes Ciudad Juarez both finished 3-5 and Bulldogs EdoMex and Tiburones Cancun both finished 1-7. [References: 2-4]

Playoffs Report (3-16 July 2022)

Rojos CDMX advanced to the Silver Bowl (Balon de Plata) with a superlative 40-0 defeat of Marlins Los Cabos while Parrilleros de Monterrey had a close 27-23 win over Caudillos Chihuahua to meet Rojos in the Silver Bowl. The Silver Bowl itself, played two weeks later was also a close game with one touchdown separating the teams in the end as Rojos CDMX won 21-14 versus Parrilleros Monterrey. [References: 3]

After the season, Rojos CDMX, Caudillos Chihuahua and Jefes Ciudad Juarez were all admitted to the Liga de Futbol Americano Mexico, the premier league of American Football in Mexico. On 30 September 2022 the league announced it was suspending operations for 2023.
