Northern Football Conference
The Northern Football Conference (NFC) is a semi-professional Canadian football league with franchises based primarily in Ontario, Canada. The league consists of eight teams and runs from May until mid-August. It's the oldest running senior amateur football league in Canada. The league began playing in 1954 (then they were known as Northern Ontario Rugby Football Union) with four teams participating, and has operated continuously with as many as 11 teams since then. The annual league champion is awarded the ''Plaunt Memorial Trophy'', named for Greater Sudbury veteran Donald Plaunt who was killed in action during World War II.
