The Orgins of The Renaissance Electric Football League was born out of a group of electric football hobby enthuesiest home based in Michigan and Northern Ohio. Formed in 2000 by a group of coaches from leagues in and around Metropolitan Detroit and Ohio. The Great Lakes League was to first league to use social media (web sites, chat boards, and forums). The Great Lakes League coaches have participated on many levels promoting the hobby at tournaments from coast to coast. The Great Lakes was the first league to achieve a full 32 team league and set the template for many leagues that are currently successful today.
The Great Lakes is the only league awarded the Coach Of The Year award to all 32 coaches that participated by Miggle/Tudor in 2008. All good things come to an end and with the expansion of social platforms, different playing styles and the desire to engage with coaches throught the country altmitately the Great Lakes split and then disbanded.

The Reniassance was founded by Martin Paris, Jamel Goodloe, Brian Perry, Greg Hardmon, Rodney Burges, Shawn Noble, Simmie Lassiter, Chuck Pitchford, Ali Rozier, Martel Cooks. The goal was to continue the front of base (FOB) tradition of electric footall and maintain a HOME BASE for local electric/miniature football playing, while trying some new equipment and playing styles. We are still Michigan and Ohio Based league. We only use current vendor mass produced equipment. The buzz continues in the northern Mid-West with a mentality of Quality over Quanty. Our Iron Sharpen Iron!!!
