Springfield Demize are an American soccer team, founded in 2006. The team is a member of the United Soccer Leagues Premier Development League (PDL), the fourth tier of the American Soccer Pyramid, and will make their debut in the Heartland Division of the Central Conference in 2007, playing against teams from Boulder, Des Moines, Kansas City, Sioux Falls, St. Louis and Thunder Bay.
They play their home games at the Cooper Sports Complex in the city of Springfield, Missouri.
The ownership of the franchise, which includes local businessmen Chris Hanlon and Doug Fiester and former professional players Armen Tonianse and Brett Thomas, is the same team which owned the now-defunct Springfield Storm franchise prior to its relocation to Glendora, California in 2006.
