The BAFA are delighted confirm that their inaugural BAFA Convention will be held at a midlands venue on June 30 to July 2. The Convention will kick-off with a presentation by BAFA Chairman, Gary Marshall, and will include an overview of WSP developments and the launch of ‘Get into American Football’ - the official BAFA campaign to recruit, train and retain players, coaches, referees, volunteers and fans.

Gary commented, "This is an exciting time for the sport in Great Britain - and our inaugural convention will be the first opportunity for all key stakeholders to meet without being in competition. It is hoped we will be able to cover an enormous amount of good work".

  • BAFCA specific lectures and training courses
  • Training course for team judges
  • Training course for ‘Elite Programme’ officials
