BCN Sports Group
Two franchises. One standard. Championship culture across every sport we touch.
Flagship Franchise
Arena Football — Driftless Region
The Dubuque Driftless are BCN Sports Group's flagship franchise — a brand-new arena football organization named for the rugged Driftless Area bluffs carved by the Mississippi River. Built from the ground up with championship DNA.
The Driftless will bring fast, physical, indoor arena football to Iowa's oldest city for the first time — playing out of Dubuque, IA and building a fan base in one of the Midwest's most storied communities.

Why Arena Football
Arena football is the heartbeat of BCN Sports Group. Played indoors on a 50-yard field with eight players per side, it's faster, louder, and more intimate than any other form of the game — and it's where BCN has built its championship identity.
Indoor Intensity
Every game is a sellout atmosphere. The walls are close, the crowd is loud, and every play matters. Arena football creates an unmatched fan experience that drives sponsor ROI.
Driftless Region
Dubuque is an untapped arena football market with a passionate, sports-hungry fan base. The Driftless will be the first professional indoor football franchise in the region.
Community Anchor
Before the first snap in 2028, the Driftless are already investing in the Dubuque community — youth clinics, school partnerships, and charity events that build lasting roots.
Also Coming Soon
The Pensacola Surge will bring fast, physical, indoor arena football to the Gulf Coast for the first time — playing out of Pensacola, FL and building a fan base in one of the most passionate sports markets in the South.
