When the Olympic Games descend upon Los Angeles in the summer of 2028 (LA28), Canadian Football League (CFL) fans may see some familiar faces proudly sporting their home countries’ colours in the quest for flag football Gold.
The league’s Board of Governors has unanimously approved participation in the event, paving the path for CFL players to be selected by each country’s National Olympic Committees in partnership with their respective National Sport Federations. In addition to Canadians and Americans, the CFL currently features a total of 37 Global players from 16 countries.
