LFL CANADA RELEASES REGINA RAGE TEAM LOGO
LAS VEGAS, NV., March 6, 2012/LFL360.com – Lingerie Football League, LLC., the fastest growing sports league in the United States, today officially released the team name and logo of LFL Canada’s Regina franchise. After conducting an online fan vote which garnered over 7,230 votes, the Regina Rage officially became the third named franchise of LFL Canada, whose inaugural season is set to kickoff on August 25, 2012.
The logo and branding include a green, black and white color scheme as well as a fierce female pirate illustrating the aggression, beauty and confidence of an LFL athlete.
The Rage will join the country’s flagship franchise, the Toronto Triumph, who competed in the U.S. league in 2011, as well as the recently-named BC Angels and soon-to-be-named Saskatoon franchise to form the first year league.
The Regina franchise will play its home games at the Brandt Centre in Regina, SK. The home opener is scheduled for September 8, 2012.
Open tryout dates for the inaugural roster will be announced in the coming days.
About the LFL:
The Lingerie Football League (LFL), founded in 2009, is an extension of the extremely popular Super Bowl halftime alternative programming phenomenon, “The Lingerie Bowl”, which drew millions of viewers and blue-chip advertisers over its initial five-year run.
Currently featuring 15 franchises in two countries, the LFL is currently the fastest growing women’s professional sports league in the United States and has achieved greater initial success than the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) and Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).
In 2010, the LFL continued to thrive by signing a national television deal with MTV Networks, drawing sell-out crowds and adding five expansion markets for the 2011 season. Lingerie Bowl IX garnered record-high ratings for the network and was viewed by millions of fans throughout the globe.
In 2011, the LFL announced the creation of a Canadian football league, set to debut in Fall 2012 as well as future expansion into Australia (2013) and Europe (2014).
