Welcome to the KRFL website. The Knute Rockne Football League was founded in 2001 by Jim Doyle, who served with distinction as our first commissioner thru mid-2003. The KRFL is a 24-team league that simulates the NFL using the Action PC Football game available from Dave Koch Sports (dksports.com). We have our own rookie draft, our own free agency, and our own salary cap and player retention system. Our 24 members have many diverse interests, but they share one common bond, the love of NFL football. For further information or to apply for membership, contact the KRFL commissioner.
If you have ordered the 2024 Action PC Football Game, the 2023 NFL player file is available for download, but the game itself is not scheduled to be available for download until May 2. If you have not purchased either the Deluxe or Super package yet, please do so.
An updated 2024 KRFL league file has been posted in the League Files section of the website for downloading. It is dated 4-28-24 and cleans up a few team's rosters. This file will work in the 2023 version of the game, however player values may not display correctly (though in KRFL we do not use them for anything other than the Development Roster players anyway).
PLEASE VERIFY YOUR ROSTER IS CORRECT. If you see any errors, let me message me IMMEDIATELY via email. The deadline for informing me of roster errors is May 3. If I do not get a message from you, I will assume your roster is correct. TRADING IS CLOSED and will open on May 4th.

Sorry to do this to you, but the durability issue was not resolved when I did the second preliminary file. I was assured it is this time. So hopefully #3 is the charm. For the three members who downloaded the #2 version, please download #3 and extract it to your league folder like it was a week file during the regular season. #3 is posted in the League Files section of the website.
For the rest of you: In the game go to Utilities>New Draft League. Title it whatever you want. Could be 2024 KRFL or 2024 KRFL Prelim Ratings, or whatever. Close the game. Down load the league file. Extract it into the folder you created above just as you would any weekly file during the season. Reopen the game and set that folder you created as the active folder.
