The European League of Football (ELF) and DAZN, the world’s leading sports entertainment platform, have signed a new eight-year partnership that will see DAZN broadcast all 101 games of the 2025 season. DAZN will become the exclusive OTT provider with a new “ELF Game Pass” product and will become the single destination where fans of the competition can watch every game.

This deal will grow the reach, discoverability and global popularity of ELF as ELF Game Pass will join NFL Game Pass, National League, Rally TV, PGA Tour Pass and FIBA’s Courtside 1891 as a standalone add-on channel within the DAZN platform. All these channels are available as part of an enhanced and upgraded DAZN subscription or as a standalone service, offering fans unparalleled choice and customisation.

With DAZN, ELF will be available in over 200 markets, across multiple internet-enabled devices and distribution channels, and benefit from DAZN’s marketing expertise and innovative product development. The flexibility and delivery-focused nature of DAZN’s platform enables live and on-demand content to be streamed at scale, while also providing the capability to localise in key markets.

“The long-term partnership with DAZN marks a landmark moment in ELF’s history. With DAZN at our side, we can continue to drive forward our vision of establishing American football as an integral part of the European sports scene and popularising it worldwide. The combination of an innovative platform and enormous reach will allow us to bring the games and stories of the ELF to millions of fans around the world. This is a huge step for the league, its franchises and football in Europe. We are convinced that this collaboration will play a key role in growing our fan base, further igniting passion for the sport and taking the European League of Football to a new level,” said Zeljko Karajica, Managing Director of the ELF.

Shay Segev, CEO of DAZN Group, said: “The European League of Football is a dynamic newcomer in European sport. As the International Home of NFL Game Pass, DAZN is driving the rapid growth in popularity of American Football in Europe. The ELF has proven its potential to drive this further. Our mission at DAZN is to offer the most attractive and diverse experience, and the ELF shares this ambition with its dynamic and top-tier content. With this partnership, DAZN will create a global home for the ELF, reaching new audiences and growing the popularity of American Football in Europe.”

The fifth season of the European League of Football kicks off in mid-May with 16 teams from nine nations: Defending champion Rhein Fire, Berlin Thunder, Hamburg Sea Devils, Munich Ravens, Stuttgart Surge, Frankfurt Galaxy, Cologne Centurios (all Germany), Vienna Vikings, Raiders Tirol (both Austria), Fehérvár Enthroners (Hungary), Panthers Wroclaw (Poland), Prague Lions (Czech Republic), Helvetic Mercenaries (Switzerland), Madrid Bravos (Spain), Paris Musketeers (France) and newcomer Nordic Storm (Denmark).

The existing ELF direct-to-consumer OTT product will be shut down and the channel will be fully aggregated into the DAZN ecosystem. Ahead of the new season, customers will receive communications on how to access the product on the DAZN platform.
