Florida Tarpons News Release


FT. MYERS, FL - The Ultimate Indoor Football League is taking another step toward helping its players achieve the goal of making a living through football.

UIFL President and Florida Tarpons Owner Andrew Haines, through his company Conquest Sports & Entertainment Management, was recently certified to represent players in the Canadian Football League.

"This will be a big help in our efforts to move UIFL players to the CFL," said Haines. "The CFL is the highest paying league under the National Football League."

The league minimum is more than $40,000 per season while playing in Canada. The eight-team league starts in June and ends in November. Former Huntington defensive lineman has already made the successful transition, playing for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

Conquest does not charge players upfront fees, and will only get paid if the player signs with a CFL team. Fees are in accordance with CFLPA guidelines.

Players that are looking for representation to play in the CFL can contact Haines at andrew@conquestsem.com for an application.
