Austria, a nation of flag football firsts, headlines the all-European Group D at the 2024 IFAF Flag Football World Championships.
The Austrians won the inaugural world championship in 2002, added the first European title a year later and then defended their world crown in 2004. Another world gold followed in 2012 and add in two fourth place finishes and Austria can claim to be the second-most successful nation on the world stage behind only the United States.
On the continental level, Austria has contested medals in Europe on all but two occasions, winning gold in 2003, silver three times (2023, 2015 and 2011) and bronze twice (2009 and 2013).
