The Cleveland Browns are partnering with the Italian Federation of American Football (Federazione Italiana Di American Football - FIDAF), following the National Football League (NFL) granting the Browns international marketing rights in Italy through the league's Global Markets Program in March 2026. This collaboration will allow the Browns to support FIDAF's ongoing efforts to grow and develop American football throughout Italy.
The Browns plan to support FIDAF's existing football development initiatives, with a focus on expanding flag football programming across youth and national teams, growing opportunities for women and girls in the sport, and strengthening grassroots pathways through school-based programs and community outreach.
