AMERICAN FOOTBALL IN ISRAEL

American Football in Israel - Steve Leibowitz (Jerusalem Post)
Thanks to the generosity of New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft and his wife Myra, American Football is one of the fastest growing sports in the country.

The Kraft Family Stadium, constructed in Jerusalem in 1999, is home to over 1,000 football players in four leagues. Robert Kraft said, "before building the field in Jerusalem, the Patriots had never won a Super Bowl. Since building the field we have three championships."
