Florida Professional Sports, League, College and High School Sports

Florida has three NFL teams, two MLB teams, two NBA teams, two NHL teams, and one MLS team. Florida gained its first permanent major-league professional sports team in 1966 when the American Football League added the Miami Dolphins. The state of Florida has given professional sports franchises some subsidies in the form of tax breaks since 1991. About half of all Major League Baseball teams conduct spring training in the state, with teams informally organized into the "Grapefruit League". Throughout MLB history, other teams have held spring training in Florida.

The Dolphins belong to the Eastern Division of the American Football Conference (AFC) in the National Football League (NFL).

(The first Florida sports franchise was the Miami Seahawks of the AAFC in 1946.)
