North Louisiana Football Alliance

The North Louisiana Football Alliance (NLFA) is a nine-man developmental football league based in Bossier City, Louisiana. The league established itself as a single entity, owning all eight of its teams, and playing during spring from March to May. The NLFA was established in 2019, introducing nine-man football to the southern region. It was created as an alternative for young athletes who weren't offered an opportunity to play at the collegiate level a chance to pursue a potential career playing pro-style football, with an opportunity to advance to a professional level. All teams will play their games at one scheduled location within the Ark-La-Tex region during the regular season. The league is the first to attempt to brand nine-man adult tackle football as a professional minor league.
