STANFORD ORGANIZES FIRST SCHOOL TO ORGANIZE A PLAYER-LED COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYERS ASSOCIATION CHAPTER

The College Football Players Association, an organization advocating for unionization and collective bargaining, announced Monday that Stanford has become the first team to organize a player-led chapter.

CFBPA executive director Jason Stahl said the goal is for other Atlantic Coast Conference schools join Stanford in forming chapters. That would create momentum for unionization and the ability for players to bargain with conferences over working conditions. Stanford players elected offensive lineman Fisher Anderson and linebacker Ernest Cooper as their representatives.
