American Football International, AFI, and the German Football League, GFL, have signed an agreement for the digital distribution of all German Football League games on AFI.tv to a global audience through to the end of 2021.
John McKeon, founder and CEO of AFI:
“We are fortunate to partner with the GFL and excited to showcase German American football to our global audience. The German Football League is the premier league in Europe so we are proud they chose AFI.tv to help promote their game to international viewers.”
Through this agreement, which is for the 2021 season, AFI on its own distribution platform, will handle the distribution and marketing of live broadcasts of almost all GFL games with commentary in German and at times in English. The German Football League will feature 14 teams competing in a 10 game regular season schedule which kicks off June 4 and ends September 5. The German Bowl is scheduled for October 9.
