The Baltimore Blast were founded by software designer Bill Stealey as the Baltimore Spirit at the end of July 1992 and joined the National Professional Soccer League. The team replaced the earlier Baltimore Blast, who folded along with the original MISL. When the team was purchased by Ed Hale, a former owner of the original team, the Spirit were renamed the Blast in 1998 (Hale had the rights to the Blast name, hence the reason why the team decided to change its name) and joined the new Major Indoor Soccer League in 2001. After the MISL folded in 2008, the team announced it would be joining the new National Indoor Soccer League. The team plays their home matches at the 1st Mariner Arena and train at the DuBurns Arena, both located in Baltimore, Maryland. The teams colors are Red and Gold.
