About The PFL
The Pillow Fight League (PFL) leads the way as the most exciting and innovative new wave in sports entertainment. Featuring strong female combatants, the PFL is engaged in the unprecedented whip-action attack of pillow fighting. Not just for the slumber-party sleepover anymore, these women are serious brawlers - armed with beauty, brains and a nasty disposition. The contests are fast-paced and furious, with flying feathers and hard-hitting moves. There are various ways to win a match, with a referee always on hand to keep the hair-pulling and scratching to a minimum.
The Past
The Pillow Fight League was founded in February 2004 by PFL Commissioner Stacey P. Case, and Honorary PFL Commissioner Craig Daniels. Two live events using the original concept of the PFL were held - New Year's Eve 2004 and 2005 - with performers from Canadian burlesque troupe “Skin Tight Outta Sight” as the fighters. New Year's Eve 2005 featured the first instance of live audience tryouts. The two gals who fought tore each other apart. THIS was the true birth of the Pillow Fight League.
The Present
After months of tryouts and training, the PFL now has a full roster of female fighters. The first live PFL Event, PFL1 in May 2006, was witnessed by a sellout crowd of over 300 fight fans. The PFL has been featured in TV, radio, and print media nationally and internationally. Recent media coverage includes The Toronto Star, The Toronto Sun, The National Post, CBC National Radio, Q107 FM, Rogers Sportsnet, CITY-TV, Ed's Night Party, and Playboy Radio. PFL2 took place on Thursday June 22 at 1032 Queen St. West (Toronto). PFL3 was at The Courthouse, Toronto on Thursday, August 17th, 2006.
