A fracture amongst the owners of the Cascade
Football League teams and the decision to allow Larry Moody to remain as
Commissioner until the end of the season prompted the Stallions, Ravens,
Thunder, Eagles and Warriors to leave the Cascade League in May after 3
weeks of play and form their own league. This is believed to be
the first time a league split in mid-season. The Colts and
Invaders eventually left the CFL as well and the WWFA brought in the
Terminators which in essence took the place of the Warriors who folded
up shop after one season of play.
The Seattle Stallions had very little trouble in
the league once the brass ruled that the Northwest Terminators could not
play in the playoffs, the only real team with a shot at challenging the
Stallions.
The Invaders made it to the championship game only
to be throttled by the Stallions.
The Colts would leave for the Pacific Football
League following the season and the Stallions folded up shop and would
not field a team for 2011, while the Washington Wolfpack (Lakewood),
Eastside Extreme, Bellingham Blitz (PDFL) and
Spanaway Outlaws would be brought in as new teams. The Terminators
were replaced by the Innercity Shine owned by David Littleton.
The Bellingham Blitz rolled through the league
while the upstart Wolfpack found their stride and made their way to the
championship game only to be annihilated by the Blitz. The Shine
played respectable football in the WWFA, but the league turned out to be
a two-horse race as none of the bottom five teams offered much challenge
to the top three.
