The Wichita Regulators are a professional indoor football team based in Park City, Kansas. They were announced as one of the inaugural teams for the revived Arena Football League (AFL) for 2024, beginning play as an independent semi-pro team in 2023 at Hartman Arena. In 2025, they will become inaugural members of the newly-formed Arena Football One.

History

The Beginning

The Regulators began as an independent semi-professional indoor team in 2022 playing a five-game schedule of games, all games at Hartman Arena. The initial coaching staff featured Carlos Cavanaugh Sr. as Head Coach, Rick Lee as Running Game Coordinator, Justin Hurley as Defensive Line Coach and Curtis Williams as Secondary Coach. They finished 5–0 in their inaugural season.^[1] They were set to join Champions Indoor Football before that league was absorbed into the second revivial of the Arena Football League.^{[citation needed]}

Wichita returns to the AFL

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.^[2] On July 18, the 16 intended market cities were announced; Kansas was not initially among the 16 regions receiving a team but would join with the league's eventual merger with Champions Indoor Football.

Steven Titus, the owner of the CIF's Gillette Mustangs and Billings Outlaws, joined the AFL in the summer of 2023, choosing the Outlaws as the team that would join, since the arena in Gillette, Wyoming could not accommodate rebound nets needed for the AFL and league bylaws did not at the time allow an owner (other than central league office) to own multiple teams. Since the sale of the team was unfeasible with the CIF merging with the AFL, Titus indicated he would transfer the Mustangs' CIF, later AFL, rights to a team in Kansas,^[3] giving an opening for the Regulators to join the league.

On October 5, 2023, the AFL announced that the Regulators would join the CIF's two existing Kansas teams, the Southwest Kansas Storm and Salina Liberty, in the AFL, as it merged with CIF.^[4] They will be members of the Central Division.^[5]

It is the sixth indoor team to play in Wichita and the first arena-formatted team since the Wichita Stealth played in AF2 from 2000 to 2004. Other teams that played include the Wichita Warlords, Wichita Aviators, Wichita Wild, and Wichita Force.^{[citation needed]}

Move to Arena Football One

On September 4, 2024, the Regulators, along with the other seven surviving members of the collapsed AFL, left that league and became charter members of the newly-formed Arena Football One set to play in 2025. They will play in the Central Division along with the Corpus Christi Tritons, Salina Liberty and Southwest Kansas Storm.
