We are excited to introduce the Utah Islanders, a new pro development football team based right here in Herriman, Utah. Our vision is to create a platform that extends the careers of Utah's overlooked athletes, guiding them to reach their full potential, whether that be in collegiate sports or in the professional arena.
The Utah Islanders are more than just a football team; we are a family that embodies the core values of the Polynesian Islands in everything we do. Our commitment extends beyond the field as we strive to represent the culture, strength, and strong family values of our incredible Pacific Islanders community. Our focus is not limited to athletes alone. The Utah Islanders also provide a platform for those aspiring to careers in coaching, front office roles, and other sports-related fields where real-time experience is invaluable. This approach ensures that we are not just developing players but nurturing future leaders and professionals in the sports industry. In our commitment to the community, we will have an established an advisory board comprising of Pacific Islander’s with deep ties to Utah. This board will guide the direction of our team, ensuring that our roots remain firmly planted in the community's values and aspirations.
Furthermore, we are proud to offer shares of the Utah Islanders to the Utah Pacific Islanders community, symbolizing our dedication to and unity with the community we serve.
Our inaugural season kicks off in May 2024. As an independent team, this structure allows us the flexibility to pursue matches with Junior College teams at the season's end, fostering competitive spirit and growth. Practices will be held at the Zions Bank Training Center in Herriman, Utah, with our home games taking place at the magnificent Skyline High School.
