2005 Georgia Force program from the Arena Football League

Georgia Force (2002-2008)

The original Georgia Force Arena Football League team played for seven seasons between 2002 and 2008, ping-ponging back-and-forth over the years between Philips Arena in downtown Atlanta and the suburban Arena at Gwinnett Center. Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank owned the team for its final four seasons from 2005 to 2008. The Force’s best season was in 2005, when the team appeared in the Arena Bowl XIX championship game, losing 51-48 to the Colorado Crush. The team disbanded in 2009 as part of the original Arena Football League’s bankruptcy and closure. A revived and much lower-budget edition of the Georgia Force played briefly in 2011-2012 in a re-booted version of the Arena Football League.
