The Alberta Football League (AFL) is an amateur Canadian football competition. For the 2007 season 10 teams competed in a single division. The league's schedule runs from May through to the end of August.

The Alberta Football League was established in 1984 so that men over the age of 21 could continue to play organized competitive football within the province of Alberta. Before the creation of the league, the only way to play competitive football after University or Junior was the CFL.

In 1984-85 the League consisted of seven teams. They were: the Calgary Raiders, the Calgary Cowboys, the Calgary Crude, the Red Deer Redskins, the Rocky Warriors, the Hinton Grizzlies, and the Brownfield Bruisers.

Today in 2007 the league consists of 10 teams. They are: the Calgary Wolfpack, the Calgary Gators, the Calgary Thunder, the Red Deer Buccaneers, the Lloydminster Vandals (the only team to be based outside the province of Alberta), the Medicine Hat Marauders, the Grande Prairie Drillers, the Wainwright Longhorns, the Edmonton Stallions, and the Edmonton Seahawks.

In 1999, the AFL became a founding member of the Canadian Senior Football League, which is now known as the Canadian Major Football League. The CMFL is the national governing body for semi-pro Canadian football. Every September the AFL champion meets the champions of the other semi-pro leagues across the country to determine the national champion.
