Stronger together with our partners
The AFBN works with a growing network of partners who help our sport, clubs and athletes grow. Thanks to their support, we can further professionalize American football in the Netherlands and make it accessible to everyone. On this page you will find an overview of our current partners and how your organization can also contribute to the future of our sport.
NOC*NSF - Partner in sports development
As a recognized sports association, the AFBN is affiliated with NOCNSF, the umbrella organization for sports in the Netherlands. This cooperation supports us in strengthening our organization, developing top sports programs and promoting a safe and inclusive sports climate. Thanks to the support of NOCNSF we are taking steps toward a stronger position of American football within the Dutch sports landscape.
Gridiron Magazine - Building the growth of American football together.
Gridiron Magazine is the only Dutch-language platform focused entirely on American football. As a media partner, Gridiron helps us make the sport more visible, share stories and connect fans. Together we work to promote American football in the Netherlands, including through the Gridiron app, in which the AFBN leagues can also be followed. With this collaboration, we bring the sport closer to players, coaches and supporters.
AFBN x DRYWORLD - AFBN and DRYWORLD join forces.
The AFBN is proud to announce a major partnership with renowned Canadian sports brand DRYWORLD. This leading brand is known for its advanced technology and beautiful designs in the world of sportswear. DRYWORLD is not only the apparel partner of our Dutch Lions (the senior national tackle football team), but they will also provide the outfits for the Dutch national flag football program! This new partnership is a fantastic support for our "Dutch Lions" and the "Dutch Tulips" on their way to the European Championships and of course the Olympic Games in 2028.
