ABOUT
The Nashville Storm is a developmental outdoor football team entering it's 13th season of play. Based in The Music City of Nashville, Tennessee, the Storm plays in Gridiron Developmental Football League (GDFL) who operates in Memphis, Tennessee. The GDFL prides themselves in developmental all aspects of football operations. Participating with the Nashville Storm, therefore, has usefulness for players seeking both professional and collegiate opportunities.
Over its’ first nine years, the Nashville Storm was consistently a championship-contending football program in the sprawling, coast-to-coast NAFL before joining the South’s toughest football league, the Premier South Football League in January of 2011. The Nashville Storm has compiled an aggregate 124-20 record in its’ first 10 years of play; the Storm has won the NAFL Southern Conference Championship in 2003, 2004, 2006, 2009, and 2010 , earning berths in each of those years in the “Final Four” of the NAFL’s National Playoffs. In 2006, the Nashville Storm, after winning the NAFL Southern Conference Championship, became the first visiting team to ever win an NAFL1 Semifinal or “Final Four” playoff game by traveling 825 miles to Voorhees, NJ and upsetting the number one seeded and undefeated South Jersey Lynx 27-24. This victory put the Storm in the NAFL National Championship Game at Disneyworld for the first time, where the Storm lost an epic struggle with the Dallas Diesel 24-19, a game that was in doubt up until the final play.
