The '''[https://discord.gg/zMwSrc2HEV Earth Football League]''', commonly referred to as simply the '''EFL''', is an gridiron football sports league on EarthMC.  It is based on the real-life National Football League, and uses a rulebook similar to that of American football. It currently consists of 12 teams with rosters ranging between four to eight players.  It was founded on January 15th, 2022, by ZGamerz_123.  It was played with a new concept which ZGamerz had to recreate American Football in Minecraft.  It has played three seasons, with the fourth currently in progress.  The first champion was the Minneapolis Meanders, and the second and third was the Alaska Orcas (now known as the Philadelphia Eagles).[[File:EFLS4.png|thumb|Earth Football League Logo for S4.  It has been updated to have a futuristic space-like theme.]]

== '''Season II''' ==
Season II was delayed several months due to the rival AFL, created by disgruntled EFL members. This caused ZGamerz to resign and become the co-commissioner to NFISH2021. The AFL merged with the EFL, and Season II began in July, 2022. All teams held the same names except for Cuba relocating to Morocco due to war, and Minneapolis relocating to Ho Chi Minh.
