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.
The
Speed ultimately decided the PIFL regional footprint was more ideal for
the organization's future. Charlotte marks the second addition of the
offseason for the PIFL as just last month the Lehigh Valley Steelhawks
were added as the seventh member.
The
PIFL now consists of teams in Richmond, VA, Knoxville, TN, Columbus,
GA, Albany, GA, Huntsville, AL, Lake Charles, LA, Lehigh Valley, PA, and
Charlotte, NC. The league holds a 12-game regular season schedule that
runs March through June. The PIFL's playoffs begin in late June
culminating with the PIFL Championship Cup.
With
the addition of the eighth and final member, league being to put the
final touches on the 2013 football schedule with a release coming in the
next month.
