The
CIFL will be holding their annual owner's meeting this coming Saturday,
October 20th, at Freedom Hall the home of the expansion franchise
Kentucky Xtreme in Louisville. The owners will be discussing a variety
of topics including the future of the CIFL, operations manual and rules
clarification and the 2013 season schedule (set to kick off in
February). They will be welcoming six new expansion/returning teams:
Marion Blue Racers, Cincinnati Commandos, Kane County Dawgs, Kentucky
Drillers, Erie Explosion, and the aforementioned Xtreme.
The
meeting will also be an opportunity for teams to familiarize themselves
with the new ownership groups representing the Dayton Sharks and the
Owensboro Rage. Catering is being provided by Centerplate.
"This
will be the first time that we get the opportunity to place all ten
ownership groups in a board room and discuss their expectations for the
CIFL going forward," said Robert Licht, Co-Owner of the CIFL - Indoor
Football, Inc. "This league's future in contingent upon the strength of
the teams within it. We are going to hear what teams want from us, and
set the level of expectations we need from them."
One
commitment the CIFL has announced is its plan to offer to their fan
base live scoring which will be featured in the CIFL Game Center from
each of the 50 scheduled regular season games.
More
information is set to come out of the upcoming meeting in the very near
future as the CIFL prepares to kick off its 8th consecutive season, and
continue its legacy as the longest consecutive running professional
indoor football league in the United States.
