The 2024 Indoor Football League season was the sixteenth season of the Indoor Football League (IFL). It is also the second year it functions as a de facto minor league of the UFL, having originally started as a partnership with the XFL.

Offseason

IFL to XFL

During the 2023 XFL Draft, reigning IFL Most Valuable Player, T. J. Edwards, was selected by the San Antonio Brahmas and IFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, Kordell Jackson, was drafted by the Orlando Guardians.

Expansion

On August 20, 2023, the league announced they would be adding the three-time, and defending, National Arena League champions in the Jacksonville Sharks as their 15th franchise. On September 26, the league added the San Antonio Gunslingers as their 16th franchise to even out the conferences. The Bismarck Bucks, which last played in the 2022 season, delayed their return to 2025.

Relocation

On November 6, 2023, the Arizona Rattlers announced their move to Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona and the Massachusetts Pirates announced that they had signed a multi-year lease with the Tsongas Center at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, beginning with this season.

Music

Beginning this season, the Indoor Football League has a theme song for all games – "The Indoor War" by Sioux Falls-based musician Denham. The song was released on March 10, 2024.

Media

In 2023, IFL announced a new broadcasting agreement with CBS Sports Network ensuring that the next three IFL National Championship games will air on the network. The deal also allows for additional games to be aired on CBS throughout the agreement. The remainder of the playoffs will be carried via the Stadium network, with online simulcasts through Stadium's YouTube channel. All other IFL games will still be streamed through YouTube, while some teams also have individual contracts with local or regional TV and radio channels.
