The team is hoping the 16-game season will end with their fifth title.

Following practice, Action Sports Jax got a chance to interview head coach Jason Gibson on Wednesday morning. Gibson, who is entering his third season with the Sharks, is already excited about how well this team gels.

The team will open their season on the road against the Massachusetts Pirates.

Running back, and IFL’s 2024 leading rusher, Jimmie Robinson says it’s exciting to open up against a rival.

Action Sports Jax caught up with Jacksonville’s Mayor, the Sharks Owner as well as some players ahead of the season opener.
