The Flames were founded as an expansion team in 1999 and joined the original incarnation of the Indoor Football League along with several others expansion franchises. In the only season in the IFL, the team compiled a 2–14 record finishing in last place in the Eastern Conference. After the IFL was bought out by af2, the Flames were not among the many teams that moved to the new league and subsequently folded.^[1][2]

Years later in 2008, the Flint Phantoms began play in the Continental Indoor Football League, but quickly folded after going 1–10.^[3]
