MLISX WELCOMES TAMPA BAY TERROR

CHICAGO, ILL. [Oct. 10, 2025]- Major League Indoor Soccer Extended (MLISX), a new men's amateur development indoor soccer league in North America developed under the Major League Indoor Soccer (MLIS), announced today the addition of Tampa Bay Terror FC. 

The Tampa Bay Terror is led by Andrew Quijano, president and owner, and Ramius Stiehler, general manager.

Quijano is a lifelong soccer player and fan with an entrepreneurial background, while Stiehler is a former professional soccer player who has played for teams like the Tampa Bay Strikers in the National Indoor Soccer League (NISL).

“The MLIS' continued dedication to growing the reach of indoor soccer by launching the MLISX inspired us to join the league to help fuel that growth,” Stiehler said. “For our first year in the MLISX, we were excited to hit the ground running and showcase the top talent Tampa Bay has to offer.”

The team will play its home matches at Sofive Winter Park Arena in Fairview Shores, Fla., and will be coached by Dominic Coco, who will act as the sporting director and head coach. 

Coco has played for various professional teams, including the Rochester Lancers and Detroit Waza Flo in the Major Arena Soccer League, and was the former head coach of the Tampa Bay Strikers.

“Our long-term goals as an organization are to offer a platform for local players, build the sport of indoor soccer in our community, and ultimately bring professional indoor soccer back to Tampa Bay,” Stiehler said.
