How the seasons works

Our EGFC Season is a 16 week regular season consisting of two 8-week splits. These splits go from 10/7 - 12/2 and 1/20 - 3/10

  • Teams compete in a weekly match (see weekly schedule below) across both splits

  • At the end of the 16 week season, the EGFC post season begins with Conference Championships followed by League Championships

Each team is given a specific schedule including the date and time of each match. Since all of our matches are broadcasted, these schedules stand for the entire season.
