ALL AMERICAN FOOTBALL LEAGUEŽ POSTPONES INAUGURAL SEASON UNTIL 2009
March 13, 2008
ATLANTA, GA -- The All American Football LeagueŽ (AAFL) announced today the postponement of its inaugural season until 2009. The League will continue to build upon the foundation that has been established, and will continue to discuss opportunities with potential investors.
AAFL sponsors have committed to remain on board for the 2009 season. Currently, the League has corporate partnerships with New Balance, Baden Sports and Rogers Athletic. Also still in place for the 2009 season are a national radio partnership with Touchdown Radio & SportsDay Productions, and an internet broadcast partnership with PlayOn! Sports, a division of Turner Broadcasting.
"We are so very fortunate to have built partnerships with companies who are partners in the truest sense of the word," said Keenan Davis, AAFL VP of League Operations and COO. "We sincerely appreciate their support as we progress toward our new goal of a 2009 inaugural season."
All fans who have purchased tickets to 2008 AAFL games will receive a full refund. Credit cards will be credited and any checks received will be returned.
Additional details regarding the AAFL's postponement are forthcoming.
My question is what happens to the players who were drafted????
Will they hold another draft next season on top of the players who have already been drafted???? and if they do, what happens to the players they already have?????
This is one big mess...... I was hoping that some Ags would make it in the AAFL & some how find their way to the NFL.... but this is looking like it was poorly organized.
