National Football Foundation

A longtime chapter that has been serving amateur football for over four decades in the heart of the Berkshires, Springfield. The chapter has solid relationships with the local high schools, prep schools and the many colleges in Western Massachusetts, as well as the Springfield area football officials. The annual scholar-athlete dinner in April, held at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, has over 400 in attendance, and honors top students and the Western Mass All-Star Football Team.

The chapter also runs a 16 team summer passing league for high school players and has sponsored numerous football clinics. In conjunction with the Central Mass Chapter and the Shriners, the chapter helps organize the "Chowda Bowl" All-Star Football game.
