==Overview==
The Rasalhague American Football League or RAFL consists of multiple teams within the worlds of the Rasalhague Dominion.  The number of teams and the length of their playing season is unknown, but they do have a playoff system to determine the top team in the League each season.<ref name=DA:LNp19/>

The teams participating in the League consist of all-[[Elemental]] players.<ref name=DA:LNp19/>  [[Clan Ghost Bear]] members are particular fans of the sport.<ref name=TCWK51>''The Clans: Warriors of Kerensky'', p. 51, "Football"</ref><ref>''MechWarrior's Guide to the Clans'', p. 69, "Football"</ref>

==History==
In [[3136]], the RAFL partnered with the [[Inner Sphere Football League]], as a show of solidarity between the Dominion and the [[Republic of the Sphere]], to combine their play off seasons after [[The Wall]] was raised.  The Wall cut off many of the best teams of the Inner Sphere Football League (ISFL) and many thought the partnership was the best way to salvage the 3135 season.  However, the all-Elemental makeup of the RAFL teams lead them to dominate the playoffs.<ref name=DA:LNp19/>

The New Oslo Vikings won Super Bowl CLXX against the [[Kessel Kings]] 34-17 in [[3136]].<ref name=DA:LNp19/>
