International Gridiron League

The International Gridiron League (IGL) is a "international rules gridiron" (a hybrid of American football and Canadian football) league, with games played in the fall and winter. The league was founded in 1979. The league's administrative offices are located in London, UK.
==Background==
The concept of the IGL originated from a failed proposal, pitched to both the NFL and CFL, to expand gridiron football internationally.
==Color schemes==
*Most IGL teams in Europe use the same color scheme as a professional association football team in the area. Generally, this would be the local UEFA Champions League teams, although Premier League and Europa League teams' color schemes have been used in areas with no current Champions League team. 
*In the US, the teams' colors are based on either MLB teams or NBA teams. 
*Most teams in Australia use the local state colors. 
*Canada based teams usually adopt color schemes reflective of NHL teams.
*Eastern Europe and former USSR based teams usually adopt color schemes reflective of KHL teams.
*Other teams use colors based on FIFA national team uniforms.
