Overview
The following is the 2020 schedule for San Diego Strike Force.
San Diego had a rough go of it during their expansion season in 2019. The Strike Force got off to a late start and finished just 1-13 with their only victory of the season coming against the Cedar Rapids River Kings, who also finished with an identical record. With a full off season which has included several notable signings, the Strike Force look to put together a playoff-caliber roster to reach the postseason. The Strike Force also have a new, sleek look which tributes the team to the Naval aviation presence in the San Diego community.
The Strike Force open their 2020 season with a trip to Bismarck to face the Bucks during opening weekend on March 8th. After their home opener on March 14th, the schedule becomes streaky; three straight away games, followed by three straight at home. The team will also see a repeat of this schedule pattern; three more away followed by three at home, including the season finale against the expansion Spokane Shock on June 27th. San Diego plays Oakland three times this season. The Strike Force do not face the Arizona Rattlers, Green Bay Blizzard, Iowa Barnstormers, Quad City Steamwheelers nor the Sioux Falls Storm this season.
Each IFL team plays 14 games (seven home and seven away), and has three bye weeks. The Strike Force have byes in Weeks 3, 12 and 15. They play their home games at Pechanga Arena in San Diego, California. Burt Grossman returns for his second season as head coach of the Strike Force.
All Strike Force games will be broadcast locally on the radio and will be available for streaming through those stations. SCtoC will provide links in its previews of the games, as well as recaps of each IFL game. Broadcast information for each game is forthcoming and will be updated on this page when available.
