WESTERN ZARTANIA

Rifles
National soccer team of the Republic of Western Zartania

Member of the IVEFA.
The Western Zartanian national soccer team was officially founded on March 30, 300AP (1364 Zart. Cal.) by order of the Western Zartanian Provisional Government.  The team's first coach was Christopher Delvana, a former head coach for the Eastern Zartanian National Soccer Team.  Delvana, with the advice and consent of the Provisional Government, quickly dubbed the team the "Western Zartania Rifles," a reference to the willingness of the people of Western Zartania to fight for their rights and freedom.  The team is made up of players of both Zartanian and Gronkian ethnicity, representing the mixed nature of the country.  Below, you will find pictures of the team's uniforms, the current 22-man team roster, a few statistics about the team, and a list of games played.  The Rifles are currently a member of the International Vexillium Football Association (IVEFA). This allows the empire to participate in international play and tournaments under IVEFA rules, to which the team subscribes.
