As of Monday, December 15, 2008, the Arena Football League announced the suspension of the 2009 AFL season so that it may focus on developing a long-term plan to improve its financial model and ensure a robust future for the league, its franchises, its players and its fans.
Please be advised that the PHILADELPHIA SOUL CHARITABLE FOUNDATION, though an extension of the community service agenda of the Philadelphia Soul, is an independent 501(c)(3) charity and, as such, will continue to operate despite the suspended season.
While the AFL works towards solutions to its financial concerns, we at the Philadelphia Soul Charitable Foundation will continue to work on solutions to the issues of poverty and homelessness, the cause to which we are dedicated.
Thank you for your continued support.
Below is the official announcement released by the Arena Football League.
