Introduction
The National Association of State Athletic Football Associations (NASAFA) is an amateur football league that was founded in 1976. It is the largest amateur football league in the United States, with over 100,000 players.
NASAFA is divided into 5 regions: Northeast, Midwest, Southeast, Southwest, and West. Each region has its own championship tournament. The national championship tournament is held each year in December.
History
NASAFA was founded in 1976 by a group of football coaches and administrators who were looking for a way to provide a more competitive environment for amateur football players. The league quickly grew in popularity, and today it is the largest amateur football league in the United States.
NASAFA has played a major role in the development of amateur football in the United States. The league has helped to raise the level of competition, and it has also provided a pathway for players to move on to the professional level.
Rules and regulations
NASAFA's rules and regulations are designed to ensure a safe and competitive environment for all players. The rules are similar to those of the National Football League, but there are some important differences. For example, NASAFA does not allow tackling below the waist.
NASAFA also has a strict policy against hazing. Any player or coach who is found to be involved in hazing will be expelled from the league.
