National
Indoor Football League
2001–Present
The
NIFL began in 2001 with 18 teams, some departing from the faltering
IPFL, the folding IFL
and new franchises. The league played its first game March 28, 2001
and concluded the season with Indoor Bowl I on August 4, 2001. The
NIFL has stuck around longer than any of the indoor leagues that
preceded it.
The
NIFL game ball is a Baden composite model with the league logo on
one panel and the home team’s logo on the other. Each home
team supplies game balls with its own logo.
