Local Football Heritage Brings The AFL To
New Hampshire

The Schubert's know a thing or two about football, and the city of Manchester. Steve played several years in the NFL, and his brother Jim put together one of the most successful high school football programs in NH history. Combine this with the right group of investors, one of the best small stadiums in the country, and a football crazed fan-base and what do you have.....The Manchester Wolves.

The Wolves set the stage for their first Arena Cup Championship in 2005 hiring Ben Bennett, 2004 Arena Cup Champion.  After going 12-4 the Wolves were knocked out of the playoffs in the second round by American Conference Champions the Louisville Fire.

Freedom To Put All The Pieces Together In 2006

When the call went out five years ago for women to play professional football, the response was astounding. Women from all over NH joined what would grow to be a successful and exciting professional sport for women. Poor weather and injuries led to a tough 2005 campaign for the Freedom, but look for the Freedom to rebound strong in 2006.
