) (“MLFB” or the “Company”), a new, professional spring–football league scheduled to kick off in 2016, today announced the league's inaugural “Pro Day” tryout camps. MLFB's tryout camps will be held throughout October and November in 14 cities.
“We are very excited to initiate our training camps,” began Wes Chandler, President of MLFB. “Over the past 6 months, we have received a steady flow of player, coaching and staff interest from 100's of people eager to play in our league, coach and train our players and be a part of the organizations we intend to staff in each our of inaugural 10–city, Spring 2016 launch. I know I speak for the entire management team here when I say we are confident that the level of talent and play we expect will be very high. Most importantly, we will begin training camp in Mid–February and will conclude our first season the end of June thus allowing MLFB players with ample time to sign with NFL teams before their training camps begin. We are player focused and believe that there is ample talent to provide professional play year around for fans.”

MLFB Background, Mission and Vision
Major League Football (MLFB), is publicly–traded company, founded upon a single entity league structure. MLFB has developed over seven years of planning by former NFL general managers, coaches, players, personnel and executives to bring professional football to the public during the spring and early summer of 2016.
The company's mission is to create a dynamic league where talented athletes, who still have a desire to play professional football, can showcase their talent and help fulfill their professional football dreams. Major League Football has established two distinct features in its approach; which sets it apart from other professional sports leagues. MLFB's vision is:
A spring football season allows MLFB and the NFL to engage a non–adversarial relationship — which could open up opportunities to operate in a complementary manner.
The spring season is typically a down period for football fans, and MLFB plans to fill this glaring void with exciting and additional football content and fan experience.
Major League Football will be delivering a professional football team to cities that currently have no professional football organizations.
At its very core, MLFB will strive to be a conduit for players with unrealized abilities. To facilitate those football dreams, we have employed experienced NFL and college coaches that will refine and showcase untapped football talent; while at the same time, develop future life skills for community–centric programs in each of our football markets.
About Major League Football
Major League Football Inc. is a publicly traded, professional spring football league. MLFB is dedicated to creating an innovative, accessible, and fan–owned game, which is scheduled to kick off in 2016. MLFB's strategically placed spring / summer season will fill a critical need for outdoor football at that time of the year when sports content is in high demand. The league's teams will focus on emerging markets in select US cities in order to grow the overall popularity of the sport.
