Coors Amateur Football League
The Coors Amateur Football League (CAFL) is a non-profit organization that organizes and runs amateur football leagues in the United States. The CAFL was founded in 1972 and currently has over 100 teams in 20 states.
History
The CAFL was founded in 1972 by a group of friends who wanted to create a more affordable and accessible way to play football. The league started with just a few teams in the Denver area, but it has since grown to become one of the largest amateur football leagues in the country.

The CAFL is known for its relaxed atmosphere and its commitment to providing a fun and safe environment for players of all skill levels. The league offers a variety of divisions, including a beginner division for players who have never played football before.
Rules
The CAFL plays by a modified version of the NFL rules. The most notable difference is that the CAFL uses a smaller field and a lighter ball. This makes the game more accessible to players of all sizes and skill levels.

The CAFL also has a number of its own rules, such as a ban on blocking below the waist. These rules are designed to make the game safer and more fun for everyone involved.

The CAFL offers a variety of divisions, including:
- Recreational: This division is for players who are looking for a fun and relaxed game of football.
