Connecticut Sports Law’s source at the United Football League (UFL) has reached out to us to provide an exclusive update on the Hartford franchise “Your Town, Your Team, Your Name” contest. The UFL is very excited to bring professional football to the Greater Hartford area this fall, and league officials have been impressed by the overwhelming response by Connecticut football fans to the “Your Town, Your Team, Your Name” contest.
UFL leadership has identified a name for the Hartford team, and are presently in the process of performing the necessary due diligence that will allow for an announcement in the coming weeks.
Stay tuned to Connecticut Sports Law for more coverage on the Hartford franchise and team name announcement in the coming weeks. Check out our previous coverage of the UFL’s foray into the Hartford market:
