DFI ANNOUNCES JOINT-VENTURE WITH GDFL

0

(INDIO) – American developmental football took a step closer to its United Soccer League counterpart when Developmental Football International and the Gridiron Developmental Football League announced it had reached a joint-venture agreement that may well represent the future of this level of the sport. 

Terms were not disclosed, but officials from both leagues expressed that the joint-venture would strengthen the American developmental football landscape through stability, commercial growth and the professional development of club football in four main regions throughout the United States.

The SoCal Coyotes and Georgia Cardinals, DFI Pacific Coast Conference and Atantic Coast Conference Champions, respectively, are among notable DFI teams that will play a GDFL schedule beginning spring 2020. 

“The consolidation of minor-league, developmental football, with the tiered structure that pro soccer currently enjoys, must remain the goal of any teams or leagues who expect to be taken seriously by a national fanbase, or national sponsors,” said J David Miller, chairman of Coachella Sports & Entertainment Stadium Authority. 

DFI is owned and operated by Coachella Sports & Entertainment Stadium Authority (CSESA), which is currently in development of The Shield at 1 Coyote Way, a $400M, multi-purpose sports, medical and entertainment campus in Palm Desert, Calif. The Shield will be the first stadium of its kind for American developmental football.
