Please note if you were unable to attend the workouts, the way forward is to be recommended by your club head coach without delay. Also if you have received no communication and attended a workout e-mail: gblionsinfo@aol.com
There are a further twenty-five spots available which will to players who were either hampered by bad weather conditions and could not attend or were involved with NFLE and BCAFL commitments. For further information e-mail gblionsinfo@aol.com
Considering the conditions both days were well attended and Coach Ayub is up beat, “We only had to look around and you could see that the sport has better athletes, than previous years, not only that players were turning up better prepared”. However, on both days there was a shortage of lineman, “This is extremely frustrating as there are a number of players out there who in two years of hard dedicated work would give us a fantastic opportunity to win gold”.
As the turnout of lineman was low there are spots looking to be filled. The Lions are appealing to all teams out there if you have a player who could contribute especially at the Offense and Defensive Line spot, then recommend them immediately.
