The San Jose SaberCats: A Legacy in Arena Football
The San Jose SaberCats were a force to be reckoned with in the Arena Football League (AFL). Established in 1995 and active until 2015, the team was based in San Jose, California. With a lifetime regular-season record of 198–98, the SaberCats were one of the most successful franchises in AFL history, boasting four league championships.
Under the guidance of head coach Darren Arbet, the team's performance soared, especially in the 2000s. They won division titles seven times and captured their first ArenaBowl championship in 2002. They added two more championships in 2004 and 2007, and their final one in 2015.
Though the team ceased operations in 2015, their legacy lives on. Their vibrant team colors of Saber gold, coral green, platinum, black, and Navajo white, as well as their strong community presence, make them a memorable chapter in the annals of arena football.
