History
Original Team owners are Mike Johnson, Mike Trumbull and Esteban Rivera who also own the Kalamazoo Xplosion. A number of Sting players and Xplosion players indicated at the end of the 2008 season that wages was in arrears from the owners. this led to an investigation of Johnson in his roll as Sting General Manager. Trumbull, owner of Triple Threat Sports in Battle Creek, and Rivera, a Battle Creek police officer, have offered a deal to split ownership of the two team with Trumbell and Rivera owning the Sting and Johnson receiving the Xplosion. Trumbull and Rivera has indicated that they plan for the Sting to move to the new Indoor Football League.
