What does the extra ‘F’ in NGFFL stand for? Fans surprised as Buffalo Bills support National Gay Football League

It should be noted that the full name of the competition is the National Gay Flag Football League and nothing else. The LGBTQ+ organized league started in 2002 and has in the past received support from teams such as the Giants, Patriots, Jets, Dolphins, Cardinals, Bears, Commanders and Seahawks.

“We are thrilled to bring inclusive flag football to Buffalo with the support of the Buffalo Bills. This exciting addition joins 27 other cities and more than 4,000 players, including heterosexual allies, in the National Gay Flag Football League,” noted NGFFL Commissioner Joel Horton op. after the news broke.

Additionally, the Bills, who were “proud” of their decision, called it a “game changer” for the sport. With the sponsorship, it would launch an NGFFL chapter in Buffalo. The NGFFL is a nonprofit organization that promotes the social and athletic enjoyment of American flag football.

The NGFFL includes more than 250 teams in 22 leagues across the United States and Canada. In addition, 4,000 players from the queer community play in the league. “We are excited to support the NGFFL and expand its impact in our community,” Bills Vice President Michelle Roberts commented on the latest development.

The league’s website will soon provide more details on the exciting developments surrounding the NGFFL in Buffalo.
