Frontwave Credit Union Backs San Diego Strike Force as Official Sponsor
March 14, 2025
Frontwave Credit Union proudly supports the San Diego Strike Force, signing on as an official sponsor and celebrating the team’s first season at Frontwave Arena. This partnership reinforces Frontwave’s commitment to local sports, backing a team that embodies grit, determination, and community pride while delivering fast-paced, high-energy football.
The Strike Force competes in the 14-team Indoor Football League (IFL), the country’s premier professional indoor football league. Played on a smaller field where walls stay in play, the IFL delivers fast-scoring, hard-hitting action that keeps fans close to every play. The Strike Force opens its season at home on March 31, kicking off an eight-game home schedule packed with intense competition.
As an official sponsor, Frontwave Credit Union will bring the excitement to every game, with ticket giveaways for fans and local youth football teams to the Frontwave Striker Squad fan zone, as well as providing promotional giveaways and fundraising opportunities for the Frontwave Foundation.
“The Strike Force plays with the same grit and determination that define our community,” said Bill Birnie, President and CEO of Frontwave Credit Union. “We’re proud to back them from day one as they kick off their first season at Frontwave Arena. This team brings more than football. They bring energy, passion and pride to the fans who make this community great.”
According to Birnie, sponsoring the Strike Force isn’t just about football. “More brand visibility means more members, better rates, and improved services. But Frontwave’s commitment goes beyond the field. Through its Frontwave Give360 program, Frontwave Credit Union reinvests in the community by supporting local organizations, military personnel, first responders, and families in need, making a lasting impact where it matters most.
Frontwave Credit Union proudly sponsors every team that calls Frontwave Arena home: the San Diego Clippers, the NBA G League affiliate of the LA Clippers, the 16-time champion San Diego Sockers, and now the hard-hitting Strike Force. Together, they bring nonstop action under one roof, creating more ways for fans to connect with the teams and the community.
Dream Big. We Got You.
