TEAM HISTORY

A LEGACY REFORGED

From the old Wheeling Ironmen to the team that helped spark the rebirth of the Continental Football League.

In 2025, that story gained new momentum when the Ironmen completed an undefeated season without surrendering a single point — a remarkable run that helped energize the vision for the modern CoFL.

Today, the Ironmen stand as a bridge between the league’s past and future, bringing Ohio Valley toughness and identity into a new era of Continental Football League football.

TEAM HISTORY

HOME OF THE IRONMEN

The Dave Bruney Football Complex sets the stage for Ironmen football in 2026.

Ohio Valley Ironmen will play at The Dave Bruney Football Complex, a venue with a listed seating capacity of 5,550 that gives the club a real home atmosphere and a clear market identity within the CoFL launch footprint.

The environment is positioned to feel local, intense, and built for summer nights — exactly the kind of setting a community-rooted professional football league should own.
