The Miami Hammerheads are a team in Blitz: The League I and II. They were founded in 1992 as the Orlando Hammerheads and were part of Clive Hanson's Scrub League.
History
Scrub League Years
The Orlando Hammerheads were a founding member of the Scrub League that was created by Clive Hanson to seize the opportunity and fill the void left during the Strike years. They started play in 1992 and by 1993 made the Scrub League Championship game losing to the New England Regulars in a shootout 47-35.
Merger into The League
The Hammerheads were merged into The League in 1994 when Hanson sold his controlling interests in the Scrub League to The League. In 1997, the Hammerheads went to their first league championship game and defeated the Minnesota Reapers 42-24. By 2004 they had made Division II but based on poor play during that season they finished in last place and were bumped down into Division III by the player's team. The Hammerheads are one of two teams the player does not play in Campaign Mode.
Move to Miami
In 2007, the Hammerheads suffered a major upheaval, when the team filed for bankruptcy and they were put up for sale. Financier Ross Taylor came to the rescue, purchasing the ailing franchise and moving to his home city of Miami. In spite of this the team persevered, with an exciting spread offense that has no trouble moving the ball and putting points on the scoreboard. This is no doubt due to their new Team Captain former Dallas Aztecs QB and two-time League MVP Julius Williams. This allowed the Hammerheads to climb back into Division II before the events of Blitz: The League II. A month before the start of the 2008 season Miami is hit by a category 5 hurricane and the Hammerheads new stadium suffers damage. Having spent most of their money signing Julius Williams they are forced to leave the stadium as is and play their home games in the damaged stadium. The Hammerheads manage to make it to the Division II Championship during the second year in the Campaign mode, but end up falling short to Franchise's team.
