About Player of the Month
Every month the International Federation of American Football will select an "IFAF Player of the Month" to be celebrated on the IFAF website.
The categories for nomination are wide and varied.
A player might have excelled in competition at any level in junior, youth or senior competition, or perhaps have a unique story to tell that is worthy of recognition.
The winning player might not be the one that scores several touchdowns in a tournament or a championship game. It might be a player who has overcome adversity or demonstrated values and character that are valued beyond the winning and losing of a football game.
If you wish to nominate a "Player of the Month" please send an email to info@ifaf.org for consideration.
