The 2022 Indy Eleven season was the club's ninth season of existence, their ninth consecutive season in the second tier of American soccer, and their fifth season in the USL Championship, the second tier of American soccer.
Heading into the 2022 season, the Eleven had undergone a notable coaching change, dismissing Martin Rennie, the longest tenured head coach of Indy Eleven at the time of his dismissal, and had been coaching the club since the Eleven left the second incarnation of the NASL for the USL in 2018.[2] Rennie was replaced by new head coach Mark Lowry, who had previously coached the Jacksonville Armada and El Paso Locomotive.[3][4]
