Kicks Off 2017 Season

The Chicago Police Football Team, the “Enforcers,” is entering their 12th season in the

National Public Safety Football League, which is made up of twenty two teams from all over

the country. This year head coach Greg Zaragoza is welcoming two dozen new and exciting

players to the team. The Enforcers are made up primarily of sworn members of the Chicago

Police Department but also have players who are members of the Cook County Sheriff’s Office

as well as other local law enforcement agencies. The Enforcers are a recognized 501c3

charitable organization and play to raise money for various local charities. Over their first

eleven seasons the Enforcers have raised approximately $130,000 for those charities. The

NPSFL plays full contact football following NCAA rules.

The Enforcers annual kick-off party is this Sunday, March 5th at 115 Bourbon Street in

Merrionette Park, which starts at 3 pm.

The Enforcers’ first game of the season is Saturday March 25th @ the St. Louis Heat who is

the Enforcers newest regional rival. The highlight of the season will be April 8th when the

Enforcers travel to Los Angeles to play the NPSFL championship runner up LAPD Centurion’s.

Also the Enforcers will host the NPSFL D II champion Central Texas Wolfpack in their annual

“Gold Star Game” on Saturday May 6th the game honors members of CPD who paid the

ultimate sacrifice. The regular season concludes with the “First Responders Memorial

Game” vs. the Chicago Fire Department Blaze on Sunday June 4th.
