WHAT CoFL IS · 30-SECOND READ

01

SUMMER FOOTBALL.

A full professional season in the window the sport isn't already using.

MAY · JUNE · JULY

02

FULL FIELD.

11-on-11. Real professional stakes. Not arena, not indoor 8-on-8. The game the way it's meant to be played.

03

FOOTBALL-CRAZY MARKETS.

Cities and regions where the game already lives. Community-owned clubs. Hometown heroes.

2026 SEASON RECAP

SEASON 1: IN THE BOOKS.

~14 games. Four clubs. A summer of proof-of-concept football that ended July 4, 2026 in Pflugerville, Texas.

The Continental Cup did not play in 2026 — and that was the right call. The Cup returns in 2027, when eight clubs contest a full season and a full postseason.

THE RULE

THE CONTINENTAL SHIFT

NFL RULES THROUGH THREE QUARTERS. A FASTER FOURTH

For three quarters, CoFL games are NFL rules. Then the fourth changes the game — a Canadian-style shift that discourages sitting on a lead, raises the drama, and keeps fans locked in until the last score.

UNION PARTNERSHIP

BUILT WITH THE TRADES

The CoFL's Indianapolis office is a workspace partnership with IBEW Local 1393. The League of Opportunity extends beyond the field — to the working-class communities, skilled labor, apprenticeships, and veterans who built the game's audience. Trade councils and locals looking to connect with a professional football platform in their region: we're building this together.
