New "D" Division Will Be Offered At The Illinois State Championships!
A new "D" division will be offered to the Chicagoland teams at the Illinois State Championships this year. The reason for the creation of the "D" division is the ever-growing number of new leagues and teams sprouting up in the Chicagoland area. The USFTL feels by adding the "D" division will offer these new teams a chance to compete in USFTL competition at a level where they will have a chance to win and become future A, B & C teams. The Illinois State Championships will be held on November 17 & 18 at Schiller Park.
