LAKEWOOD RANCH, FL--(Marketwired - Aug 31, 2016) - Major League Football, Inc. (OTCQB: MLFB) ("MLFB", the "League" or the "Company"), a new, professional spring football league kicking off in April 2017, today announced the appointment of its President, Mr. Wesley S. Chandler, to the Company's board of directors.

Mr. Chandler's addition to MLFB's board of directors completes the appointments of MLFB executives to the board of directors, which is now seeking candidates to serve as independent directors, and is establishing independent board committees, in order to meet the governance listing standards of a national exchange.

Mr. Chandler assumed the role of President of Major League Football in July 2014. Under his leadership, the Company's management team is positioning the League to kick-off its first season of professional, spring league football in 2017. As previously reported by the Company and Mr. Chandler, the League has targeted eight (8) cities, currently void of a professional football franchise, to host a MLFB franchise, its players, coaching staff and support organization. In January of 2016, the League completed its inaugural draft for its current 2016 Development Season. The League is currently targeting the November to December timeframe for its 2017 Draft and the naming of its Team Rosters. The Company will formally announce dates and locations of try-out camps and the actual draft date in the coming months.

"I am truly humbled to serve on the board of directors for Major League Football," said Wes Chandler. "As the current President of Major League Football, I can state without hesitation, our staff's intent is bringing spring football back to a new generation of football fans. Built on the long list of accomplishments during the past two years, we believe the timing of events leading up to our 2017 kick-off is perfectly aligned. Our management team has been working diligently behind the scenes towards a successful kick-off in 2017," Mr. Chandler concluded.
