The Virginia Armada are a professional American football team based in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The team is a member of the Major League Football (MLFB), a publicly traded professional football league, and plays its home games at Virginia Beach Sportsplex.
The Force are part of the league "Core Four" teams.[1] They are the first pro football team in Virginia since the United Football League Virginia Destroyers.
On March 18, 2022, Major League Football launched a new website and revealed that there will be only four teams for the first season.[2] On March 22 the league reveled their second coach in Terry Shea.[3] The league would later reveal he will coach the Virginia Armada.[4]
