PIFL Adds Eighth Member in Charlotte Speed

The Professional Indoor Football League (PIFL) is proud to announce the addition of the Charlotte Speed franchise making them the eighth and final member of the PIFL for the upcoming 2013 season.
Based in Charlotte, NC, the expansion Speed will be led by two former NFL veterans in General Manager Mo Collins and Head Coach Brentson Buckner with the Bojangles' Coliseum serving as their home venue.
