2025 - ORLANDO TEAM FORMATION WITH UFL EXPANSION

The Orlando Storm is a newly announced franchise in the current United Football League (UFL), set to debut in the 2026 season. They replace the former Orlando Guardians and are part of the UFL’s strategic expansion into “football cities.” This move is part of UFL co-owner Mike Repole’s strategy to expand the league into markets with strong sports roots, following the merger of the XFL and USFL.
