The United States national American football team represents the United States in international American football competitions. It is controlled by USA Football and was recognized by the International Federation of American Football (IFAF) until the power struggle between IFAF Paris and IFAF New York in 2015. In the meantime, the national team can again take part in international competitions through the USFAF.
The United States team is the most successful at the American Football World Championships because they have won all three tournaments they have participated in. The USA team suffered their first defeat at the 2017 World Games when they lost 14:13 to the German team with college players .
