VladSparr 95 it wont be pretty but me to lol

+VladSparr 95 I like seeing what they're doing with the sport overseas, but if they brought any of the European teams over to the states to play it would be painful to watch. No hate towards the European teams, but where they are now and how they play isn't hardnosed football. I could see a high school football team here in the states putting up a lot of points against these guys.

Thats bull bro, thats adults vs kids if someoneis best in their country at something their gonna be able to beat teenagers

It would more than likely be collegiate all-stars at first, but when gridiron becomes popular outside of North America, that’s when we’ll see professional NFL and CFL players.

America will dominate lol

Aye if y'all like the improvements England is making with the sport check out Nottingham Caesars Under 19's. We're currently half way through the season and unbeaten - check us out! If you see #22 make some hits you know who it is ;)

Jon Howard you don’t know the league in the UK that well then

Jacksonville Jaguars are trying to move to London

I hope it does become big in the UK cuz I would definitely play

BCFC theres already loads of youth teams and teams around, wherever you are look it up!

@@jbcf4490 Depends on what age you are and where you live, even youth (13-17) have teams in Birmingham, Nuneaton, Milton Keynes etc

there already is a huge uk football league

Like Great Britain Lions American Football Programme on Facebook!

@@jasonselormey3125 *program

@@chaseharper6482 His spelling is correct. That's how they spell program in the UK. Don't be a git.

Now complete :)

There’s already a world championship

there is, just no one cares

Stokey Junior well then play.

JousX thats a whole lot easier said than done

no its actually pretty easy if you really want it.

+Stokey Junior Don't know if you're American or British or whatever, but I was born and raised on football in the states. We start playing when we are young around 10 years old to learn the sport well up into junior high and high school and some make it to the college level of football and I even went to school with a guy who plays in the NFL now for the Washington Redskins. Brandon Scherff is his name. It is a tough sport, but a fun one. If you really want to play, join your school's team when football season comes around. Get in shape, work out hard, and be ready. There is nothing like walking out onto the field with the guys that you've been training with for week after week to go up against another group of guys that have been doing the same and want to beat you, but you gotta want it more than they do. Football season will be here before you know it.

It’s hard in the uk because we only do rugby

@Rance Sim 😂😂😂

football?

@@Armyjayden33 LMAOOOOOO

Find a way. The European side of the game appears to be more a thing of passion then the systems that are in place here in the States. It looks to be more amateur based and does not appear to have the college system that exists in the NCAA. So it looks like it's going to be a personal journey kind of thing. Like with most things in life, if you want it badly enough, you will find a way.

Dion b-f You don't get scouted, you really think we have the money to afford scouts?? You just show up to one of the teams rookie days usually in October depending on the team just look it up

@@insertnickname5842 What's the team called in Germany i want to check them out?

what the hell i didnt know the Czech republic had one either?! whats going on does every european country have a team?

@@thedyslexicorangutan8049 Ik this is late but Japan actually has a football league too

@@TitoRapa303 I think Russia does too and a lot of other European countries

Just find a local team

Shakur there is a league g just join a team

No its mostly amateurs who seen it tv and want to have a go.Must remember before the 80s there was no american football anywhere in europe..

Not exactly. There is flag football played in some schools at the moment but there's no contact until university level. A lot of universities have teams and it's pretty popular but the standard is american high school level as these guys have been doing other sports for their whole childhood. Some rugby players will find the switch less jarring but the 15+ years of 'soft skills' American counterparts would have simply aren't there. After Uni there's 50 or so amateur teams, 3 divisions of proficiency with the top level being where they pick the guys in this video from. London teams mainly win everything because that's where most of the black athletes live.

+Derpmerp 1234 American football was first played in 1869, but it was more rugby style rules. It wasn't until the 1880's when the rules started to change into what we would recognize as American football today.

HawkeyeNation19 Actually, the Princeton-Yale game from 1869 was more like an association (soccer) match than rugby. When Harvard played against McGill University (Canada) five years later, it featured elements from rugby as well as association.

HawkeyeNation19 yeah but the NFL started in the 20’s

@@kenmograd2009 Actually the first recorded gridiron football was in 1861 at the University of Toronto among it's student. The US was too embroiled in the Civil War to take up football

Austin Holmes actually more brutal since they aren’t holding back one tiny bit since they know they have there equipment.ive seen guys literally spin and fly in the air

Terrance McKnight look at the closest club to you right now and join bud

Look up the England assosiation online, they have a club finder

No, all amateur

We don't have a league at the moment but maybe soon, that's when we'll become better at football

@@harrywhite9030 there is a league but it's amateur. There's really no prospect of Britain having a semi pro league. But if the international sport was bigger, I guess we could probably fund a professional national team.

When I was playing in high school we played against two teams that had that same logo lol

I want to play but it would be even harder for me because I’m a girl 😂

@@nualaloughran8422 are you in the US or not since in US you can just join your local team or even highschool or middle school team. Probably wont get much play time but its a step

Star Spangled Banner Marcha Real no I don’t and to be honest I’m glad i much prefer living in England 😂

ted yancey i prefer it but it's hard to get into in England, my nearest team is 2 hours away so I can't play. My parents don't want to "waste" their time

+8xhsveb why a s (FidgetingDragon) that sucks. i wonder why schools over there dont have sports team

LOL careful, you'll trigger a ton of soccer/football lovers.

Accessibility

Not sure about better just different, i used to hate football and was a huge soccer snob but its actually a really cool sport i hope it takes off at the International level europe would be a hotbed of athletes who could excel at this sport

They're not exactly the same sport. America also has rugby teams.

what college did u play for and division. i call bs.

Huh? If you're American, usually Americans refer to university as college. You then interchangeably use soccer and football making a rather confusing statement. You probably meant football (soccer) isn't going anywhere, but then before you said (American) football days are numbered which doesn't make much sense given what you said before unless you meant that the possible growth of (American) football would diminish participation in soccer abroad - well, of course it won't since soccer/football is practically the most popular sport in Europe.

LIttle Rascal hes probably a drop out lol im studying at fresno state university

@@Aim4sixmeals I go to Fresno City, huh small world.

I've been to four NFL games at Wembley and tickets are not free.

What? I don't get that at all, I think it's cool they're playing & they even put "American Football" on their jerseys, i know to distinguish it from Soccer but also as a sign of respect.

Everyone has to start somehwere, they are pioneers taking on American Football when they could have taken up a different sport. If you like the sport you have to root for this, it spreads from here.

+Roger Chavez Agreed. I like the spread of American football overseas, but I they're far from ready to play against any American team yet. I don't think they want to die.

Roger Chavez wow. I made this comment a while ago and I realized, That I am an asshole. I’m glad this sport is being played in Europe and I give these guys props

@@alexteo6273 but it's true. Of course they're rejects of rugby. But now they love American football.

our country is so big so it's hard for everyone to sound the same and be diverse. I have friends who so happen to be black talk like white people and some sound like Hispanics.

I was speaking in General terms......there will always be an exception, (Barack Obama?) I think the problem here in USA is the fact most of our BLACK population are descendants from slaves, a population with little or NO education. It's only logical to assume their form of the English language is a derivative of that history.

Black people in britain generally makeup much less a proportion of the population so they are mixing with white people much more.

Jon Howard A glaring concern with international gridiron is cultivation of homegrown talent. Alot of European clubs take on American player that weren't quite talented enough to make it to the next level in their country. But they are better than the home pool talent. So they take them to win. This hurts the growth of the sport, you are basically taking 2nd, 3rd rate American talent to play for you. You need to cultivate NFL caliber talent at home. That takes awhile, but the process can be sped up if you stop looking at it from the perspective of American D-NFL.

Kaysha-Leigh McBurnie kinda like European soccer players coming to America?

@@@joeholloway3526 it's the same thing

@@Dazzed-kj5kf that's my point.

​@@kaysha-leighmcburnie2109 Some of the international football leagues I've read about have a limit as to how many non-native/American players can be on each team
