Enumerating Teams

Teams can be enumerated via the FootballOrganization's teamsConnection field:

{
  nfl {
    ...footballOrg
  }
  ncaa {
    football(conference: PAC12) {
      ...footballOrg
    }
  }
}

# The same fragment can be re-used for both NFL and NCAA.
fragment footballOrg on FootballOrganization {
  teamsConnection(first: 100) {
    edges {
      node {
        name
      }
    }
  }
}

There may be situations where you need team data that isn't universally applicable to all football organizations. For example, if you need the team club codes as defined by the NFL's Game Statistics and Information System, you won't find them on the FootballOrganization directly.

One way of accessing organization-specific data points is via the direct approach:

{
  nfl {
    teamsConnection(first: 100) {
      edges {
        node {
          name
          gsisClubCode
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Or you can use an inline fragment to maximize code re-use:

{
  nfl {
    ...footballOrg
  }
  ncaa {
    football(conference: PAC12) {
      ...footballOrg
    }
  }
}

# The same fragment can be re-used for both NFL and NCAA.
fragment footballOrg on FootballOrganization {
  teamsConnection(first: 100) {
    edges {
      node {
        name
        # You can access league-specific fields with an inline fragment.
        ... on NFLTeam {
          gsisClubCode
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
