Company Description: With its stripped-down style and high impact highlights, the American 7s Football League® (A7FL) is re-inventing this country’s most popular sport. The A7FL’s trademark no-helmets no-pads tackle football combined with fast-paced live games and social-media-first production style attracts young fans who are increasingly tuning out the NFL and other major league sports. As we expand our national and international distribution, the A7FL’s authenticity and grassroots appeal are enabling us to add expansion divisions across the country while we develop new media and revenue opportunities.
