Savannah Coastal Outlaws
The Savannah Coastal Outlaws are a professional indoor football team based out of Savannah, Georgia, and play their home games at Savannah Civic Center.
The Outlaws were founded in 2017 in the wake of a dispute between the Savannah Civic Center and the city of Savannah's previous indoor football team, the Savannah Steam, who had left bills unpaid after using the Civic Center in 2016. With the city of Savannah unwilling to let the Steam play at the Civic Center in 2017 unless they paid their past-due bills (which they never did, instead opting to play 2017 at a warehouse in Statesboro), the city signed an agreement with the Outlaws to play there for 2017.
The Outlaws established an amateur developmental league called United States Indoor Football to operate out of the Civic Center; the league played for two weeks in 2017 before disbanding. Concurrently, the Outlaws were unsuccessfully courted by Supreme Indoor Football but instead played its inaugural professional season in Arena Pro Football (APF) in 2017. APF merged into American Arena League (AAL) for 2018, with the Outlaws coming along into the merged league. However, the Outlaws were removed from the AAL website in September 2017.
