Austin’s participants in the newly formed Southern Indoor Football League announced today their moniker, Austin Turfcats, and their new logo (see right). The Turfcats home opener will be held in April at the Travis County Expo Center. Ronald Oswalt was named the team’s vice-president and general manager and had the following to say, “We are excited to share the good news of our team and our commitment to this community.”
The Turfcats will be keeping things green, literally, by having chosen Armadillo Gold, Recycling Green, and Natural White as their official team colors.
The SIFL will also field teams from Houma, La.; Houston; Lafayette, La.; Lake Charles, La.; and Pasadena, Texas. For info on tickets call 832/754-7666 or e-mail turfcats@gmail.com.
