Established in 2011, Toronto Northstars (formerly named Toronto Mounties) is an organization within TUFF that forms teams of our players to compete in C and D “Open” Divisions at various NGFFL tournaments across the U.S. and Canada.

Their mission is to represent Toronto, Canada, and the TUFF with the spirit of our league. They aim to play their best flag football at each tournament and use the experience as an opportunity to further develop their skills in a more competitive environment.

NGFFL (National Gay Flag Football League)

NFL Films Presents | NGFFL: Flag Football For Everyone

The TGFL are proud members of the NGFFL.

Created in 2002, the National Gay Flag Football League (NGFFL) is a US 501(c)(3) sports organization that seeks to promote the positive social and athletic enjoyment of Flag Football. Through our league, our events and most importantly our members, we also seek to foster and augment the self-respect of all lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons and to promote respect and understanding from the larger community.

While particular emphasis is placed on these specific goals, it is a fundamental principle of NGFFL that all activities, social and athletic, are conducted to be inclusive in nature and that no individual shall be excluded from participating on the basis of sexual orientation, gender, race, religion, nationality, ethnic origin, political beliefs, athletic ability, physical challenge, HIV status or gender identity.

Currently, over 250 teams in 26 leagues across the United States and Canada are members of NGFFL. Teams representing these leagues participate in the national tournament titled Gay Bowl, hosted every Columbus Day Weekend in a different member city.

NGFFL member leagues include: Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Fort Lauderdale, Honolulu, Houston, Indianapolis, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New York City, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, Providence, Salt Lake City, San Antonio, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Toronto, and Washington D.C.
