The 2012 Colorado Ice season was the team's sixth season as a football franchise and fourth in the Indoor Football League (IFL). Founded for the 2007 season as part of United Indoor Football, the Colorado Ice became charter members of the IFL when the UIF merged with the Intense Football League before the 2009 season. One of 16 teams that competed in the IFL for the 2012 season, the Fort Collins-based Colorado Ice were members of the Intense Conference.[1]
