The National Football League Players Association, or NFLPA, is the labor union of players in football's National Football League. It was founded in 1956, but only achieved recognition and a collective bargaining agreement in 1968.

When that tactic worked it reformed as a union and resumed collective bargaining with the league in 1993. - Source: Wikipedia
