Both teams were set to begin their seasons at the Future Legends Complex in Windsor, but issues related to construction material availability and litigation with a former contractor impacted the completion date.

A spokesperson for Future Legends said the organization hopes Future Legends Field (capacity:2,500) will be finished by July andTicketSmarter Stadium (capacity:6,500) will be finished by September.Depending on the status of materials, however,these estimates may still change. All Hailstorm games are currently set to begin at 7 p.m., and single-game tickets are available online. General admission tickets are $15.

Ticket options will be reevaluated with the continued construction of the Future Legends Complex.

Owlz games are set for 4:05 p.m.unless they are on Sunday, which begin at 1:05 p.m. Single-game general admission tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis.They are $10 plus any applicable fees. Fans who placed a deposit for season tickets will receive a discounted package. The Owlz began their inaugural season on the road Wednesday, May 25 in Great Falls, Montana, against the Great Falls Voyagers.
