The Trinity Professional Spring Football League (TPSFL) was a proposed low-level professional American football minor league. The league was formed in 2017, with a proposed start in 2018, but after multiple postponements of the kick-off date, the inaugural season was pushed back to 2020, which never happened.

As of May 2021, the league trademarks are "Dead/Abandoned".[2]

Premise

The league website claimed it would be a "nationwide league" with 32 teams throughout the US. TPSFL hoped for some kind of collaboration with the NFL, and promised every player contract would have an "opt-out clause" for the NFL.[3] Players’ salaries were, presumably, capped at 350k per player per year.[4]

History

The Trinity Professional Spring Football League was intended to start play in 2018, and started to conduct tryouts, with the first one in Fullerton, California on April 23, 2017.[5] The second tryout was in Fontana, California[6] and a third one in Culver City, California on July 9th,[7] but the league cancelled all other planned tryouts.[8] On October 6th, the TPSFL announced a two-team California Showcase, for a cost of $450 registration fee.[9]. It was later pushed to December 9th,[10] but never materialized. After only three tryouts, the league start was pushed back to 2019, but again only tryouts for three teams were held.[11]

On September 11, 2019, the League’s website claimed its being upgraded, and declared they were planning to start a 2020 season with a 12-week season starting on May 4th,[12] but never returned.[13]

Teams

While claiming to field 32 teams, and registering 19 team names,[14] the TPSFL officially held tryouts for only three teams,[15] and recognizing two more:

  • Arizona Bobcats
  • LA Shock
  • Nevada Centurions
  • Pennsylvania Stealth[16]
  • Columbus Sabers[17]

For 2019 the league announced teams in 12 locations divided into East and West divisions: Washington, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Idaho and California in the West and North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Indiana, Ohio and Maryland in the East.[18]
