We catch up with the head coach of Britain's longest-competing American football team after their first season in the Southern Conference... It’s been a difficult decade for BAFA’s longest-running team. During the sport’s boom time in the 1980’s and 90’s, they were one of the biggest institutions in the country, often gating around 7000 spectators for home games, but as
I recently attended the GB Lions trials in Sheffield, not (as you may think) because the team are looking for a “veteran” tight end, with elite level measurables, but to check-in with the Lions head coach, Mike Callan. Following their success in the group B European Championship qualifying games last October, where they convincingly despatched Russia and then Czechia, coach Callan has
We look ahead to the 2016 BUCS Championship Final... As the Stirling Clansmen and Birmingham Lions stormed to undefeated seasons in the north and south respectively, it appeared increasingly inevitable that these two would be contesting this year’s big final, and here we are, preparing to watch the strongest two university sides in the country lock horns once
Summerbowl 2018 Images courtesy of Jody Demay-Davies The Summerbowl! If it were 1985 we’d be talking about the first British National Championship game between the London Ravens and the Streatham Olympians, but it’s not, so fast forward to 2018 and you’ll see that it’s the culmination of the NFL and Subway’s combined initiative to get kids involved with Football through
In my blog at the start of the Sapphire series I posed the question “Are there any lion tamers out there” by the end of series four, the finals day, we had an emphatic answer, no…not yet. Birmingham continued their domination taking a fourth successive title. For the season, they were 8 and 0, on the day they amassed 104 points over two games, and conceded only 6. The strength of
Late Afternoon On March 26, If You Put Your Ear To The Ground You Could Probably Hear An Audible, Yes! Go On Sterling! Throughout The Britball Nation. The Clansmen Had Secured Their Fourth National Championship, And The Programme From Durham University, Were Still The ‘Aints. Let’s Look Back Over The Last Five Months And See How The Season Unfolded For Stirling, Durham, Loughborough, Derby
The A Level Results Are In And All Over The Country Young Scholars Are Deliberating Over Which University To Go To. Interestingly, Some Of Them Will Be Basing Their Decision On The Strength Of The American Football Programme. Generally, These Will Be The Individuals Who Have Played Junior Ball. In The British Universities Competitive Sports League For Football, There Are Ten Elite
From Southampton to Vegas Cameron Craig is a big unit! At 6’4” and 270lbs he strikes an imposing figure. He has also made a big impression with the Las Vegas Cobras of the Arena Football League and their owner David Foster, who found him through the Podyum Recruitment group, and have signed him to a pro contract
Ordinarily if you are in an American football contest, you’ll be playing four quarters. For Great Britain to win through to the next stage in the European Championships, they would need to win out over eight. Standing in their way were Russia and the Czech Republic, and over a period of three days, they dispatched both of them, convincingly.
I recently had the good fortune to attend the annual BAFCA convention at the National Ice Arena in Nottingham. It provides an excellent opportunity for the nations more progressive coaches to come together to share and learn. Clearly the event carries a good degree of importance within the British games hierarchy, as competitive action in the National Leagues is suspended for the weekend
If I were assessing him for the NFL combine, I’d say London Warriors linebacker David Izinyon is a big time hitting machine with no passive traits. He stacks and sheds blockers, has great lateral pursuit and is an open field finisher with elite closing speed. He won’t be at this year’s combine, but you can witness all those qualities if you catch him playing for Trent University (where he
In September 2013, I was meandering around my university’s fresher’s fair eating free pizza when I heard a sentence that would go on to change my life. “Hey mate, you’re quite tall, you look like a wide receiver.
