Mandatory paramaters
  • name = name of the team
  • founded = year the team was founded, eg. [[1950 in sports|1950]]. Some CFL teams' roots go back much further than the year they were "officially" founded, in these cases, enclose further information in a footnote with the <ref> tag, eg.: 1950<ref>Footnote goes here</ref>
  • location = city and province/state the team was based in, eg. [[Ottawa]], [[Ontario]]
  • field = home field of the team, eg. [[Frank Clair Stadium]]
  • division = division the team played in, eg. [[Canadian Football League East Division|East Division]]
  • colours = main colours of the team's uniform, eg. Black and red
Optional paramaters
  • bgcolour = colour that should appear behind the name text
  • fontcolour = font colour of the "name" text
  • helmet = image of the team's helmet design, eg. CFL Rough Riders 95-96.gif (do not include the Image: prefix)
  • logo = image of the team's logo, eg. OttawaRoughRiders.png (do not include the Image: prefix)
  • suspended = year the team was suspended by the league (this is mainly for unusual situations such as the indefinite suspension of the Ottawa Renegades franchise)
  • folded = year the team folded, if any
  • nickname = common nickname(s) used by the team's fans, if any
  • coach = the team's head coach, eg. [[Joe Paopao]]
  • manager = the team's general manager, eg. [[Eric Tillman]]
  • owner = the team's owner, can be a person or organization (ie. some CFL teams are community-owned)
  • championships = list here individually the Grey Cup championships that the team has won, eg. [[2000 Grey Cup|2000]] or [[88th Grey Cup|2000]] (suggestion: separate with commas, eg. 2000, 2001, 2002 and list three or four per line, using a line break: <br/> to start a new line). If the team has not won any Grey Cups, either exclude this paramater, leave blank, or simply state "none". It may also be appropriate to first include the total number of championships and then list the individual years in parentheses.
  • mascot = the team's mascot(s)
  • website = the team's official website, eg. http://www.bclions.com
