The German Football League (GFL) is the elite league for American football in Germany.
The GFL is divided into north and south conferences, each with six teams. In each
conference, every team will play each other twice, both at home and away. Each team
also plays home and away "inter conference games" against the team from the
opposing conference that finished the previous season with the same rank, so that the
regular season covers 12 games. At the end of the regular season, the top four teams
from each conferences enter the playoffs, to determine the German championship. The
winner of each conference plays against the fourth place team from the opposing
conference and the runner-up against the third place team. The final is called the
German Bowl.
