The International Bowl is a high school football game held each January in Arlington, Texas at AT&T Stadium. It features USA Football and the American football governing bodies of international countries. The series of games pit the US National Football Team against teams from other countries and regions around the world.

The game began as a tournament in 2009 featuring the United States, Canada, Mexico and France before moving to a single game in a USA vs. The World format. In 2017, the event was expanded from one game to several games over multiple days and features teams of several ages from U19 to U15.

The game has been broadcast on NFL Network, CBS Sports and ESPN. The United States won the first five meetings against Canada, Mexico, France and the World Team. The World Team was the first to defeat Team USA, with a 35–29 win in the 2012 International Bowl.^[1]
