The professional Indoor Football League<\/a> is leaving Kent and the ShoWare Center after just two seasons.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Owners of the Seattle Timberwolves, previously known as the Kent Predators until a name change midway through the 2011 season, are looking at moving the team to Everett.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Whether or not the team ends up at the Comcast Arena in Everett for the 2012 season remains to be seen. But the team is out of Kent.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n “The Timberwolves will not be playing at the ShoWare in 2012,” said Tim Higgins, ShoWare general manager, in a phone interview Tuesday. “It was a business decision reached by their ownership.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Crews were moving furniture Tuesday out of the team’s offices on East Meeker Street in downtown Kent. The shades were drawn on the storefront’s windows and doors and a pickup and trailer were loaded with office furniture to haul away.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The team had four coaches, three owners and two names in just two years and struggled to draw fans. The league’s regular season runs from February through June.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n “They averaged about 1,200 per game,” Higgins said.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The team had a year-to-year contract with the city-owned arena and paid all of its bills, Higgins said.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n “We wish them success in Everett,” Higgins said. “And my door is open to anyone who wants to start a team in Kent.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Tom Dowling, a Lakewood businessman, bought the Kent Predators in April midway through last season. That’s when the team changed names. Dowling said at the time he planned to keep the team in Kent<\/a> beyond the 2011 season.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
