History

On November 15, 2022, it was announced that the Showboats were joining to fulfill the Tampa Bay Bandits spot after the Bandits announced their hiatus for the second season of the USFL.[1] On that same day, Todd Haley was announced as the Showboats' inaugural head coach. Players and coaches from the existing Bandits team were transferred to the Showboats.[2]
