The Salt Lake Screaming Eagles are a professional indoor football team based in West Valley City, Utah, near Salt Lake City. The Screaming Eagles are an expansion team in the Indoor Football League and will begin play in 2017 with home games at the Maverik Center.
History
The team was announced in April 2016 by a group called Project FANchise with the intent on creating an entirely fan operated indoor football team.[1] The project announced that fans would vote on every aspect of the team including the name of the team, signing players, and calling plays. On June 6, the name of the team was announced as the Screaming Eagles after the 101st Airborne Division.[2] The name was picked over the more controversial choices of "Teamy McTeamface," "Sandtroopers,"[3] and "Stormin' Mormons."[4]
