History[]
The Gulf Coast Flash were created in the 2010-2011 season as Mississippi's first ABA franchise. They switched high school courts before the season started.
The Flash are based in Gulf Port, Mississippi and held the accolade of being the ABA's only Mississippi team when they were created in the 2010-2011 season.
Despite posing lackluster records (the best record they've composed is 7-3), they are also one of the league's better teams, having ranked as high as fifth place in the ABA power rankings.
