The planned fourth phase is intended to increase the main stadium size to 15,000-20,000 seats and expand the amount of fields and facilities, adding a club house, pool, and fitness center.

On January 11, 2016, the club folded after the NASL announced that they were unable to find suitable local ownership for the team.

In January 2019, the club announced that the agreement had been dissolved, and they would no longer use the name or play at Silverbacks Park.

On July 28, 2019, Atlanta's Major League Lacrosse team, the Blaze, announced they would be moving to Silverbacks Park in the middle of their season.
