AFL Press Release
AFL moves to 18-game regular season schedule for 2011
TULSA- The 2011 Arena Football League regular season has been extended from 16 games to 18, Commissioner Jerry Kurz announced today. The league will consist of 19 teams and each will play 18 regular season games, with the option of two preseason games (one home and one away). The change was passed in an ownership vote last week during the league’s Board of Directors meeting in Phoenix, AZ.
“There has never been a better time for the Arena Football League,” said Commissioner Jerry Kurz. “The product is exciting, our economic model is sound and fans are demanding affordable family entertainment. Extending our season is a great decision, both from a business and fan perspective,”

Congratulations Spokane Shock

Arena Bowl XXIII to be played despite the lack of Iowa Barnstormers
Arena Bowl XXIII to be played despite the lack of Iowa Barnstormers
Iowa Barnstormers Examiner
Hey Stormer fans! The Barnstormers season may be over, but there is still one more game left to be played in the 2010 Arena Football League season. The Spokane Shock and the Tampa Bay Storm take the field Friday night for an epic battle known as Arena Bowl XXIII.
It’s only fitting. These two teams took turns at the top of the coaches’ polls all season long, and in the end, proved to be the two best teams in the league this season. The Shock, rocking the league’s best record at 13-3, will host the game at Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena. According to the Tampa Bay Storm Facebook page, “Arena Bowl XXIII is a sellout. The building in Spokane holds 10,800 and 11 thousand tickets have been sold.”
The Tampa Bay Storm are no strangers to the Arena Bowl, having appeared in the championship game five times before. In 1996 they squeaked out a 42-38 win over our beloved Barnstormers at Veterans Memorial Auditorium to grab the title. They also won championships in 1991, 1993, 1995, and 2003, making them one of the most successful organizations in AFL history. A victory in Arena Bowl XXIII would give the Storm an unprecedented sixth championship.
The Spokane Shock, on the other hand, are in just their first season at the top level of arena football, having previously been part of the AF2. They have two AF2 Arena Cup titles, but this will be their first appearance in the title game of the Arena Football League. First-time head coach and former Shock player Rob Keefe appeared in the championship game twice during his time in the old AF2, once as a player and once as a coach. He also competed in Arena Bowl XXII as a player with the Philadelphia Soul in 2008. The mayor of Spokane, Mary Verner, has proclaimed Friday, August 20, 2010 as “Paint the Town Orange Day” in honor of the Spokane Shock hosting Arena Bowl XXIII. In addition to the city proclamation, Gov. Christine Gregoire has proclaimed August 20, 2010 as “Spokane Shock Day” throughout the entire state of Washington.
Nerds.
The game will be televised on the NFL Network at 8:00pm Eastern time. Iowa Barnstormer hall of famer and “greatest player in Arena Football League history” Kurt Warner will call the game along side former Iowa Hawkeye quarterback Paul Burmeister, who will be handling the play-by-play and sideline reporters Anthony Herron and Ari Wolfe.

It's official! Iowa Speedway to get a second NASCAR Nationwide race date in 2011!
Iowaspeedway.com
TWO NASCAR NATIONWIDE SERIES RACES CONFIRMED FOR IOWA SPEEDWAY IN 2011
(NEWTON, Iowa) Iowa Speedway officials have confirmed that the Newton oval track facility will host two NASCAR Nationwide Series races in 2011. The highly-anticipated events will ‘bookend’ the track’s racing season next year, with the first 250-lap contest scheduled for Sunday afternoon May 22, and the second 250-lapper slated on Saturday evening, August 6.
“We couldn’t be more thrilled to have a second NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Iowa Speedway,” said Jerry Jauron, President and CFO of the four-year-old speedplant. “NASCAR has expressed a lot of faith in our ability to both draw huge crowds for their NASCAR Nationwide events, as well as to attract significant corporate partnerships to support the NASCAR Nationwide race weekends, and we will work very hard to prove that their trust is well-placed.”
U.S. Cellular, the title sponsor for Iowa Speedway’s first two NASCAR Nationwide Series races in 2009 and 2010, will continue with entitlement for the August 6 event, while a new corporate partner is sought for the May 22 show.
“The support of great Iowa companies, and those based in the Midwest who do business in Iowa, make it possible for us to host national caliber events like the NASCAR Nationwide Series ” said Iowa Speedway Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Chuck Spicer. “We are confident that we will find the right ‘entitlement partner’ for our new NASCAR Nationwide race in May, and that our current marketing partners will fully support the addition of this very important event for the track.”
“Iowa Speedway has done a great job hosting NASCAR events, and the fans have shown tremendous support of those races,” said Steve O’Donnell, NASCAR’s Senior Vice President of Racing Operations. “We’re excited to have a second NASCAR Nationwide Series date at Iowa in 2011.”
Iowa Speedway is located 30 miles east of Des Moines on Interstate 80, just south of Exit 168 in Newton. Information about specific events and schedules may be accessed on the track’s official website, www.iowaspeedway.com. Season Tickets for 2011, which will include both NASCAR Nationwide Series dates, plus the Camping World Truck Series, IZOD IndyCar Series and four premier supporting series events, are scheduled to go on sale by mid September.

Iowa Speedway might get two NASCAR Nationwide races in 2011?
Keep in mind that this is not a done deal. But Iowa Speedway is new facility and a high quality race track with terrific fan support, so there is good reason to be optimistic.
Des Moines Register
Charlotte, N.C. — The Associated Press has reported that Iowa Speedway is on schedule to host two Nationwide Series races in 2011.
NASCAR sent a copy of the 2011 Nationwide schedule, which was obtained by The Associated Press, to its teams last week. It shows the Newton track hosting the second-tier series on May 22 and July 23.
Iowa has hosted just one race a year since it received its first NASCAR-sanctioned event last season.
Iowa Speedway vice president and general manager Craig Armstrong said track officials are in discussions with NASCAR about the 2011 schedule, but nothing has been finalized.
“The concept has been offered to us — having a second date has been offered to us, and we are definitely talking with them,” Armstrong said. “Dates are being discussed.
No agreement has been made and no date has been finalized. So it’s just way preliminary here.”
Armstrong said the track’s success with NASCAR — and whether one or two Nationwide Series races will be at Newton in 2011 — is firmly rooted in fan support.
The track’s July 31 Nationwide race drew a sellout crowd of 55,988.
“It is due to the fan response to what we are offering currently that makes it even possible or feasible to think about adding another Nationwide race, or anything else for that matter,” Armstrong said. “It’s just a matter of how well does your fan base support your events? ... There’s no question if we couldn’t, in their opinion, sustain a second race, we wouldn’t even be having these discussions at all. So I guess it’s a tribute to not just the race track but to the fans of Iowa Speedway — the folks who support the race track by buying tickets and coming out here — that we would be even under consideration.”
A NASCAR spokesman described the schedule that was sent out as "tentative." It shows two open spots where NASCAR is still trying to schedule events to make it a 35-race season.
