The Boston Freedom Fighters are part of the newly created National Spring Football League (NSFL). The NSFL is developmental league that will begin play in the spring of 2013.  As a developmental league the first priority will be to help develop the players to and market them to the National Football League. The NSFL is excited to field eight competitive football teams and provide a fun, affordable family atmosphere across the country.

The Boston Freedom Fighters have hired former New England Patriot Patrick Pass as Head Coach. Several fellow former New England Patriots and NFL players will join Pass as part of his staff. These coaches bring with them a wealth of playing experience gathered from many years of playing college and professional football.

Malden businessman William Spadafora is the President of the organization and Salem native Sean Stellato will be the Vice President/General Manager the Boston Freedom Fighters.
