The Mississippi Wolfpack made their presence known with a national championship and a culture built on development, intensity, and accountability.
Driven by competitive fire and a commitment to growth, the Wolfpack bring physical football and relentless energy into every season. In 2026, they return focused, hungry, and ready to compete.
Built in The Jungle. Forged by Championships.

Established in 2006, the Columbus Lions are one of arena football’s most decorated franchises. Five-time champions. Nearly two decades of dominance.
Playing inside the Columbus Civic Center — “The Jungle” — the Lions bring legacy, stability, and a winning standard into every season. In 2026, they’re not chasing relevance. They’re protecting tradition.
Brick by Brick.
No Shortcuts.

Founded in 2018, the Jersey Bearcats didn’t enter arena football to participate — they entered to dominate.
2023 AAL2 Champions and back-to-back title contenders, Jersey built a program defined by discipline, physicality, and big-game experience. Now returning to the American Arena League in 2026, the Bearcats arrive with leadership, edge, and unfinished business.
Blue Collar. Championship Driven.

The 2024 AAL2 Champions, the Wheeling Miners represent toughness at its core. Built in West Virginia and battle-tested at WesBanco Arena, this organization thrives on grit and execution.
They don’t talk loud. They hit hard. And when the moment comes — they finish.
Season after the season the Miners continue to set the standard for physical, disciplined arena football.
