About the Arizona Cardinals
The Cardinals were founded
in 1898 and in 1920 became a charter member of the National
Football League. The club holds the distinction of being the oldest
continuously-operated franchise in professional football. While it
has been in existence for more than a century and enjoys a long,
rich history, the team's greatest success has come in the last 15
years. In that span, the Cardinals have won their division three
times, advanced to the conference championship game twice and
earned the franchise's first-ever Super Bowl appearance. Away from
the field, the organization's commitment to the community is a
year-round mission, highlighted by the efforts of Cardinals
Charities which was founded in 1990 to improve the quality of life
and enhance opportunities for children, women and minorities in
Arizona.
