Template:United Football League (2009) team The United Football League currently has an unnamed professional American football team based in Hartford, Connecticut. The team will play its home games in Rentschler Field in East Hartford, Connecticut.

The team began play as the New York Sentinels in October 2009, with home games split between Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, James M. Shuart Stadium in Hempstead, New York, and Rentschler Field (one home game in each venue). The league had planned to play at least one game in New York City proper (at Citi Field), but this never materialized, and the proposed game was moved to Shuart Stadium.

Chris Palmer is the current head coach and general manager, after the Sentinels fired head coach Ted Cottrell following an 0-6 season in 2009. The team hired Palmer away from the New York Giants, where he spent the last several seasons as the team's quarterbacks coach. In February 2010, the team moved to Hartford, Connecticut for the 2010 season, a move initially opposed by team owner Bill Mayer.[1]
