Team History
Toledo Football Club is an entirely student run organization and a club sport at the University of Toledo. It started when President and Founder, Dylan Brown, was finishing up with the intramural flag football league at the university in November 2019 when him and his teammates were thinking about how they missed playing football in their high school days and wished they had the opportunity to play again. After doing some research online, Dylan discovered Ohio State's club football team online. From there he discovered the National Club Football Association (the NCFA) and that they are a national organization that oversees all college club football in the nation similar to the NCAA. After speaking with some club football teams such as Oakland University and Ohio State University, as well as a representative from the NCFA, Dylan reached out to the University of Toledo in December 2019 and proposed the creation of a club football team.
Club Football
It is a team for playing real full contact, full pads, 11 on 11 college football against other schools with club teams all overseen by the NCFA. After 2 months of preparing, meetings, filling out applications, getting together club officers and potential players and other staff, Toledo Club Football was officially approved as one of the newest club sports team at the University of Toledo on February 13, 2020. While they had finally accomplished the dream of creating a club football team and getting the opportunity to play competitive college football, a lot of the work remained ahead as the fundraising then began. Football is an expensive sport to play. There are many pieces to put together a football team and it can cost a lot of money. However, with your charitable donations and sponsorships with our hard work at fundraising, the dream of playing football again for these young student-athletes at the University of Toledo can still come true.
