Pierre Trochet - IFAF President
“We are proud and honored that IFAF has entrusted Playground with the organization of the IFAF EURO FLAG 2025 in Paris. This is a strong recognition of the work we’ve done in recent years to develop events that are accessible, ambitious, and audience-focused. With this project, our goal is to bring together all stakeholders in the flag football community : institutions, clubs, volunteers, and fans, and to co-create an event that is both competitive and welcoming. We’ve designed an open and inclusive experience, where the excitement of the competition extends beyond the field and into a vibrant experiential village. A heartfelt thank you to all our partners and dedicated teams. We can’t wait to welcome the delegations, the public, and all flag football enthusiasts to share this key moment on the European sports calendar.”
