The Florida Stingrays are a semi-professional football team out of Fort Myers, Florida that was established in 2007 in the American Indoor Football Association and United Football Federation of America. They were once a 2008 expansion team of the American Indoor Football Association, where they played their home games at the Lee County Civic Center.[1] They are currently playing for the Elite American Football League.
The Stingrays were the only winless team in the AIFA in 2008.[2] After the season, the majority owner of the team left, and the team suspended operations.[3]
The Florida Stingrays were scheduled to play in 2012 at Germain Arena but hoped to play at Lee County Civic Center for the Southern Indoor Football League.[4] Instead, they became an amateur team and joined the Southern Amateur Football Association.
