On February 16, 2022, the Minot Parks and Recreation Board voted in favor of entering into negotiations with the Northwoods League to bring an expansion team to the city to replace the Souris Valley Sabre Dogs of the Expedition League, whose lease on Corbett Field had expired and were set to disband following the 2022 season.[1][2] The negotiations proved successful, and the Northwoods League held a press conference at Corbett Field on August 24 to announce that a new expansion team in the league would be coming to Minot, to begin play in the summer of 2023.[3]
The team name was decided on by the public via a "Name Your Team" contest, with name submissions being taken during August and September. Name finalists were announced on September 12, with the 5 top choices being the Dakrats, Hot Tots, Why Nots, Berserkers, and Night Owls.[4] On October 21, it was announced that the team would play as the Minot Hot Tots, with the name in reference to hotdish, a popular meal in the Upper Midwest.[5]
