Welcome to the Utah Indoor/Arena Football League! The UIFL is the oldest and largest semi-pro recreational Indoor/Arena football league in the country! The league has been in existence since 1998. This is our 10th year anniversary! The UIFL is a non-profit organization registered with the State of Utah.
The UIFL mission statement is simple: to allow quality football players to continue playing professionally organized football after high school, college, and pro careers may be over. Many players continue to develop their talents and move to the next level of football in the quest to reach the goals they have set for themselves. After ten years, the list is long on young men that have gone on to successful careers in College, CFL, AFL and the NFL.

Vince Lombardi Speech: "WHAT IT TAKES TO BE NO. 1"
Vince Lombardi Speech
This is considered as one of the greatest football speeches of all time.

WHAT IT TAKES TO BE NO. 1
by Vince Lombardi
Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all the time thing.
You don't win once in a while; you don't do things right once in a while; you do them right all the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game, and that's first place.I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay, and I don't ever want to finish second again.There is a second place bowl game, but it is a game for losers played by losers.It is and always has been an American zeal to be first in anything we do, and to win, and to win, and to win. Every time a football player goes to play his trade he's got to play from the ground up-from the soles of his feet right up to his head. Every inch of him has to play.Some guys play with their heads. That's O.K. You've got to be smart to be number one in any business. But more importantly, you've got to play with your heart, with every fiber of your body. If you're lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he's never going to come off the field second.Running a football team is no different than running any other kind of organization, an army, a political party or a business. The principles are the same. The object is to win. To beat the other guy. Maybe that sounds hard or cruel. I don't think it is.It is a reality of life that men are competitive and the most competitive games draw the most competitive men. That's why they are there. To compete. To know the rules and objectives when they get in the game. The object is to win fairly, squarely, by the rules-but to win. And in truth, I've never known a man worth his salt who in the long run, deep down in his heart, didn't appreciate the grind, the discipline.There is something in good men that really yearns for discipline and the harsh reality of head to head combat.I don't say these things because I believe in the "brute" nature of man or that men must be brutalized to be combative. I believe in God, and I believe in human decency. But I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious.
