NEW YORK - The North American Soccer League (NASL) released a statement on Tuesday regarding the future of the San Antonio Scorpions.
San Antonio Scorpions owner Gordon Hartman informed the NASL that his business transaction with the City of San Antonio, Bexar County, and Spurs Sports and Entertainment has resulted in the sale of Toyota Field and S.T.A.R. Soccer Complex. The NASL is working with Hartman to determine the future of the San Antonio Scorpions.
We are proud that the NASL has been able to make a significant contribution to the special needs community and the league is grateful to the fans of San Antonio for their support.
Every sports league in North America has experienced turnover in its early stages and the NASL is fortunate to have a group of owners and league officials that has a tremendous understanding of how to work through change. Ownership and investment interest is at an all-time high, and we expect to be a 20-team league in the near future.
The 2016 NASL schedule will be released in early January, and it will feature the league's three newest clubs - Miami FC, Puerto Rico FC, and Rayo OKC - which will each kick off their inaugural season next year.
