    SOCCER LEAGUES {Appendix 5, to Sports Facility Reports, Volume 17} Research completed as of July 27, 2016 INDOOR PROFESSIONAL LEAGUE (IPL) Team: Baltimore Blast Principal Owner: Edwin F. Hale, Sr. Current Value ($/Mil): N/A Team Website @BaltimoreBlast Stadium: Royal Farms Arena Date Built: 1962 Facility Cost ($/Mil): N/A Facility Financing: N/A Facility website UPDATE: The Baltimore Business Journal stated there is a new proposal for a $450 million waterfront arena along the Inner Harbor of Baltimore. It is planned to hold 15-16,000 seats. This would replace the fifty-two-year old Royal Farms Arena. The proposal by Cordish Companies still needs approval by the city, and it is still in the exploratory stage. Talks have stalled due to upcoming mayoral elections in fall 2016, so the team still plays at Royal Farms Arena. The Baltimore Blast left the MASL and started the IPL in May 2016 with three other teams joining it. The IPL’s inaugural season is 2016-17. NAMING RIGHTS: The First Mariner Bank’s naming rights contract ended in December 2012 when it was renamed Baltimore Arena. In September 2014, the arena was renamed Royal Farms Arena after an eighteen-month search for a purchaser. Royal Farms will pay $250,000 annually over five years for the naming rights and have the option to renegotiate the deal after five years. © Copyright 2016, National Sports Law Institute of Marquette University Law School Page 1 Team: Florida Tropic SC Principal Owner: Andrew Haines Current Value ($/Mil): N/A Team Website @FLTropicsSC Stadium: Lakeland Center Date Built: 1974 Facility Cost ($/Mil): N/A Facility Financing: N/A Facility Website UPDATE: The team will play in the IPL’s inaugural season, 2016-17.
