Florida's modern major-professional era began with the Miami Dolphins in 1966 and expanded rapidly from the late 1980s through the 1990s with the Heat, Magic, Lightning, Marlins, Panthers, Jaguars and Rays. Soccer added another major chapter with Orlando City entering MLS in 2015, the Orlando Pride beginning NWSL play in 2016 and Inter Miami CF starting MLS competition in 2020. Together, those franchises have produced championship runs across football, basketball, hockey, baseball and soccer and helped turn Florida into one of the country's deepest multi-sport markets.
