The Miami Valley Silverbacks are a professional indoor football team based out of Troy, Ohio. They're currently a member of the Continental Indoor Football League. They play their home games at Hobart Arena.

The team began play in 2006 as an expansion member of the American Indoor Football League. On Saturday, March 25, 2006, WR/DB Maurice Lee managed to set five AIFL Wide Receiver records, en route to his teams' 57-54 Week 5 road victory over the Steubenville Stampede. He set the record for most catches (16), most reception yards (191), most receiving touchdowns (7), most points (42), and total touchdowns (7).

After the season, the team decided to move to the Continental Indoor Football League, along with their brother franchise, the Steubenville Stampede.
