The Israel Football League (IFL) is the premier American football league in Israel, established in 2005. It features teams from various cities, allowing local players to compete in a structured format. The league aims to promote American football in the country and has grown in popularity over the years. The IFL operates under the guidelines of the American Football Association of Israel and includes both amateur and semi-professional teams. The season typically runs from late summer to early spring, culminating in a championship game known as the Israel Bowl, which determines the league champion.
