Pre-season

[edit]

The Erie Explosion joined the league, after playing two seasons in Continental Indoor Football League.[1] The Explosion took the place of the Georgia Fire, who were created by the league to fill the void of the Albany Panthers, who folded in January 2014.[2]

The Harrisburg Stampede abruptly folded prior to the 2015 season due to financial problems.[3]
