AFFA RENEGADES!!


Oakland, California:  The Associated Football Franchises of America are proud to welcome the "Oakland Renegades " to the league beginning in 2019.

The franchise formerly known as the Denver Miners, had intended to relocate to Honolulu Hawaii for the 2019 season. However ownership could not close the deal to play at Aloha Stadium. The decision to make the move to the Bay area seemed like the logical move since the NFL Raiders will be relocating to Las Vegas soon.

" We are extremely pleased and excited to bring the AFFA brand of football to Oakland.  Oakland is a great football town with a long history and passionate fans. We chose the name Renegades because it fit the legacy of Oakland and the AFFA. We hope to continue that tradition of excellence that the city of Oakland has come to expect from its sports teams. It is what they deserve and nothing less."

The Oakland Renegades will call Oakland-Alameda Coliseum home. Their colors will be Teal, Dark Blue and Red. Their head coach is Mike Jones.


Other AFFA news:

Former LSU offensive lineman and CFL veteran Peter Dyakowski recently announced his retirement from football. Dyakowski played the last 3 seasons with the New Orleans/ Arkansas of the AFFA. He just recently signed with the San Antonio Cimarrons prior to announcing his retirement.

The Carolina Breakers announced that they have waived quarterback Shane Carden after 3 seasons. The decision came after the team signed rookie quarterback Nic Shimonek out of Texas Tech University. The team also signed veteran quarterback Aaron Murray.
