San Diego Shockwave vs. Los Angeles Lynx
Well we have a new sport in San Diego. The San Diego Shockwave are an expansion team from the National Indoor Football League. They will be playing teams from all over the country. Their home stadium is Cox Arena at SDSU. I don’t know how long indoor football has been around but it sure would be interesting to watch. Now we can have football all year round! In the beginning of May the Shockwave will be taking on the Los Angeles Lynx at the Cox Arena.

Here is a bit of info about the NIFL from wikipedia for your reading pleasure:
National Indoor Football League is a minor league indoor football association based in the United States. For their first six years, the league had teams in markets not covered by either the Arena Football League or its developmental league, af2, however, that has changed with their expansion into AFL markets such as Atlanta, Denver, and Los Angeles, as well as af2 markets such as Cincinnati, Fort Myers, and Houston. The NIFL is based in Lafayette, Louisiana. The league was founded by Carolyn Shiver. Cleveland Gary is the current league commissioner.
The league has spawned two spinoff leagues. In 2005, nine teams left the league to form United Indoor Football (UIF). In July 2006, Osceola left to join 2 former AIFL franchises to form the World Indoor Football League (WIFL).
The league was also the temporary home of four teams during the 2005 hiatus of the Intense Football League.
After a chaotic 2006 season, more than half the league’s franchises left for other indoor leagues. In addition to the WIFL, teams left for UIF, the af2, and the AIFA.
The NIFL lists five current teams, and nineteen expansion teams, scheduled to play in 2007.
