SPORTS NEWS: Union Omaha Announces Leadership Transition

February 11, 2026

Martie Cordaro announced last week that he will step back from his leadership role with Union Omaha and will serve full-time with the Omaha Storm Chasers. 

When Alliance Sports, owner of the Omaha Storm Chasers, founded Union Omaha in 2019, Cordaro was chosen to lead both organizations. He continued to serve in his role as president of the Storm Chasers even after Alliance Sports sold the team in 2024. 

The move comes as Union Omaha’s downtown stadium project continues to progress and will help leadership better balance the vision for the club’s future with day-to-day operations.

“As the stadium project gets underway,” Cordaro said, “this is the right moment to return to a one-team, one-sport leadership focus and serve full-time with the Omaha Storm Chasers. Of course, I am a lifelong supporter of the Owls, and I will remain an important part of the ownership group. I am deeply grateful to both organizations and the staff and fans who have made it possible to lead in both roles, and I have great confidence in Union Omaha’s leadership and future. This transition is about strategic focus and ensuring both organizations have the dedicated leadership they deserve as they move forward.”

The club has announced that Alexis Boulos has been promoted to Chief Operating Officer. Union Omaha will also begin its search for a president and Chief Revenue Officer to lead revenue strategy across partnerships, ticketing, sponsorships and future stadium-related initiatives. Both Boulos and the new president/CRO will report to Gary Green, Union Omaha’s CEO and managing partner.
