Event Details
We are excited welcome The Washington Wolfpack to Everett for their 2024 inaugural season. Welcome to your new home & go pack!
The Washington Wolfpack are a professional indoor football team based in Everett in the U.S. state of Washington. They were announced as one of the inaugural teams for the revived Arena Football League (AFL), beginning play in 2024.
The Arena Football League (AFL) first started in 1987 and continued operating until 2009. Four years after the AFL folded for the second time, it was announced on February 1, 2023, that the league intended on relaunching in 2024. On July 18, the 16 intended market cities were announced, including Everett.
About the game:
Arena Football is played with 8 players on offense and 8 players on defense. The game is played on a football field that has the same dimensions as a hockey rink (50 yards long) and the padded boards that surround the field serve as the out of bounds marker. The Arena Football League is adopting the "Ironman" Football rules that the league played under for nearly two decades. 6 out of the 8 players play both offense and defense with 2 players (typically the Quarterback and a Wide Receiver) serve as "Offensive Specialists" and only play offense. 2 players on defense are then designated as "Defensive Specialists".
There are a couple unique ways to score points in the Arena Football League that are not found in most other football leagues. On a kickoff, if the Kicker kicks the ball through the Field Goal posts, the team is awarded 2 points. Additionally, if a kicker dropkicks the ball for an extra point or field goal, the team is awarded 1 additional point.
