Zwolle Blue Jays partners with the NFL | Weblog Zwolle

Zwolle – Zwolle Blue Jays, through the Queen’s Football League (QFL), have entered into a European competition partnership with the American women’s football organization – Women’s Football Association (WFA).

The Blue Jays is Zwolle’s local American women’s football team. Entrepreneur Kanisa Molone is the founder of the NFL and her mission is to get women to play American football in every major Dutch city. Over the past five years, I have built an organization that now includes six Dutch American football teams and more than 150 members.

Starting this month, American football’s Zwolle women are teaming up with the American WFA to give female players more opportunities in the sport. Over the past decades, this American partner has grown into a platform where women can eventually fulfill their dream of playing professional American football. With WFA as a partner, players from the Dutch QFL can play in America and possibly start a professional career there as is already possible for sports like football and tennis.

In addition, cooperation with WFA opens many international doors and QFL members can participate in matches in the United States, but also in countries such as Mexico and Costa Rica where American football is very popular.

Kanisa Molone wants this partnership to remove barriers for girls and women to join the NFL: “It means they can play anywhere in the world.” In addition to being a QFL manager, Muluneh is also the one who ensures players in the sport can find well-fitting sportswear of all sizes. Earlier this year, this inspired her to launch a body positivity campaign with some American football players at the fore, to show that plus-size women also love to exercise.
