Mo'way - it's Movember already!!

30 Days hath September, April, June and Movember! That's right, Movember is back! This year the USAFL will be participating once again in the fantastic event to help raise money for a great cause.

Movember is all about bringing back the moustache, having fun and doing it for a serious cause; men's health, specifically prostate and testicular cancer initiatives.
