Arena Football to Start Season June 8
Arena Football will begin its fourth season on June 8, with six teams playing an eight-game regular season in competition leading up to the Arena Bowl in August, officials said Wednesday.
The top four teams at season’s end will meet in two playoff games the week before the Arena Bowl. The winners will participate in the championship game Aug. 10 or 11 at a site to be determined.
The Detroit Drive, Arena Football’s champions the last two years, head the list of four returning teams. Dallas and Albany, N.Y., join existing franchises in Detroit, Denver, Pittsburgh and Washington.
The regular season ends July 28. The playoff games before the championship game will be held on Aug. 3-4.
