  • It was a code based on Canadian football rules

  • It was a code that allowed unlimited substitutions

Answer

In its initial years, the Arena Football League (AFL) played a proprietary code of arena football that differed from other codes of football. The game was faster and more physical than traditional American football, and featured a smaller field and fewer players. This allowed for a more exciting and action-packed game that was more suited to the smaller arenas in which the AFL played.
