IFL seasons

The 2023 Indoor Football League season was the fifteenth season of the Indoor Football League (IFL). It was the first year of the IFL and the XFL player personnel partnership, with the IFL functioning as their de facto minor league. [1]

Offseason

The league added one expansion team, the Tulsa Oilers. [2] [3] The Columbus Wild Dogs further postponed their debut to 2024, [4] while the Bismarck Bucks suspended operations. [5]

Rule changes

For the 2023 season, the IFL announced the following rule changes: [6]

  • The Deuce kick rule will now be in effect during the entire game.
  • The ball is considered "live" if the kickoff hits the uprights or goalposts and comes back into the field of play.
  • The 25 second play clock will begin after the ball is spotted.
  • Positive yardage rule in the last 60 seconds of the game has been eliminated.
