I would agree with that statement and concur. Thanks. We are hoping that Ron Bell will assist with the legal side but if not it will be helpful to know that there are others such as you coop.

Since all the sugestions for names are very Good let the Hobby vote Pool the best names together and see what the collective group likes, since this started in the spirit of unity I feel that should be included somewhere. maybe ?
American Football Hobbyist United, like a union kinda thing just my 2 cents here.

Since my first choice of a name is a little to close the The MFU name here is another alternative.

The United American Football Hobbyists Association

Its a little long but i feel it conveys the message that we are trying convey. To me the name does'nt really matter, the work ahead is what excites me the most. Faith, Fairplay & Fellowship is the Mission that is most important.

"UNITED MINIATURE FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION" or UMF peace.

Lynn,

Miniature American Football Association or MAFA for short. By the way I think that Miggle might have a copyright on "electric football".

I like the sound of " Football Hobbyists Player Asscociation " .

It reflects Football , the hobby , people who play the game and a united front .

But, what is best for the hobby MUST BE the focus , and the menbers of the association must keep this in mind . What is right and just should always come first over what is liked .

I say that because some will not put what is best for this hobby first infront of there wants , or likes .

Minature Tabletop Football Association

This game will always be good old "electic football" but replacing the word "Electric" with the word tabletop (or some other key adjective) could represent "today's" game with strategy, base tweaking, customizing, big boards, team development, leagues, tournaments, and fellowship.

Interestingly, my 19 year old brother in law had never heard of "electric football". Now I've got him and his buddies at college hooked!

Excellent Michigan Joe. Keep recruiting!

I believe the word BROTHERHOOD should be included in some form in the Coaches association.

Vibration Football Brotherhood of Coaches

Anyone of any backround from anywhere who went to the fest could easily recognize BROTHERHOOD way above coaching.

Just so great to see so many of my Brother Coaches from all over the country.
