Introduction
The CFL Winter League is an amateur football league that is played in the Czech Republic during the winter months. The league was founded in 2018 and currently consists of 16 teams. The teams are divided into two groups, with each group playing a round-robin schedule.
The CFL Winter League is open to players of all skill levels, from beginners to experienced players. The league provides a fun and competitive environment for players to enjoy the sport of football during the winter months.
Rules
The CFL Winter League plays by the same rules as the Canadian Football League (CFL). The games are played on a 110-yard field with 12 players on each team. The object of the game is to score more points than the other team by moving the ball down the field and scoring touchdowns or field goals.
The CFL Winter League also has some unique rules. For example, the games are shorter than CFL games, lasting only two 25-minute halves. Additionally, the league allows for unlimited substitutions, which allows teams to keep their players fresh throughout the game.
Season
The CFL Winter League season runs from January to March. The top two teams from each group qualify for the playoffs, which culminate in a championship game.
The CFL Winter League has been growing in popularity since its inception. The league has attracted players from all over the world, and it has become a popular destination for former CFL players who want to continue playing the game during the winter months.
