The Seminole Tribe of Florida has begun a new partnership with West Flagler parties to offer and promote wagering on Jai Alai on the Hard Rock Bet app.

As part of the agreement, the West Flagler parties have agreed to refrain from bringing or supporting any future legal challenge to the Seminole Tribe’s gaming operations, including mobile gaming offered.

In addition, Jai Alai provided by Battle Court Jai Alai, an affiliate of West Flagler, will be offered on the Hard Rock Bet app. 

The parties anticipate that the Seminole Tribe will launch Jai Alai on its Hard Rock Bet app in early 2025.

“This is truly a win-win agreement for the Seminole Tribe and West Flagler,” said Jim Allen, CEO of Seminole Gaming. “This agreement establishes a relationship of collaboration among the Seminole Tribe and West Flagler in the State of Florida.

“Rather than engaging in years of additional litigation, this agreement will allow the parties to work together to promote Jai Alai, which has played an important role in Florida’s gaming landscape for nearly 100 years.”

Isadore Havenick added: “We are thrilled to be partnering with the Seminole Tribe in support of their gaming operations in Florida and to promote Jai Alai, which has been a critical component of Florida’s gaming industry since the 1920s. We are proud that Jai Alai will be featured on the Hard Rock Bet app and we look forward to developing a strong partnership with the Seminole Tribe.”
