The San Diego Shockwave were an indoor football team based in San Diego, California, that competed in the National Indoor Football League. The team played its home games at Viejas Arena, home of the San Diego State Aztecs basketball teams. The Shockwave were founded as an expansion franchise in 2007.
The team was owned by former BYU player Jeff Sprowls and his father, Robert. The Shockwave finished the 2007 season 10–1 in the league and won the NIFL title, but the league itself experienced many difficulties as other teams folded. For 2008, the Shockwave ownership decided not to continue operations in the NIFL.
Some games were broadcast on XEPE, "San Diego 1700 AM." Chris Ello was the play-by-play announcer.
