Overview

Mission

To serve as a platform for collaboration, education, and growth and strive to elevate the standards of field management.

What it reported doing in 2025

Facilitating a community of dedicated professionals committed to sharing best practices, innovative techniques, and insights garnered from years of experience and serving as a platform for collaboration, education, and growth among NFL Field Managers.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 97% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 94% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - Most voting board members are independent and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
