The Fayetteville Mustangs were a professional indoor football team based in Fayetteville, North Carolina, playing their home games at Crown Coliseum. The Mustangs began play as members of the National Arena League in 2023.
On August 24, 2022, the National Arena League announced the Fayetteville Mustangs as an expansion franchise for the upcoming 2023 National Arena League season[1] However, the team withdrew from their inaugural season after playing eight games due to financial difficulties with hopes to return in 2024.[2][3]
The original schedule was changed following the removal of the Albany Empire on June 15. However, the Mustangs also withdrew from the season on June 26 without playing any of the revised schedule.
