Hey guys,
I had a great time playing you guys this past summer. i was a member of the American touring team (#52 offensive guard and nose tackle on defense), Christian Outreach International.
Congratulations on your successful season. Also, i've got one year of college football left, and i'd be interested in playing somewhere in the UK after that. I'd like to earn at least some poundage to supplement the income i'd get from a job.
Anyway, keep hittin hard and taking NAMES!

I would like to say congrats to the Senators on last year. It didn't end with a championship but you played a great season. As for Lancs. and Yorks. not being NORTHERN! Mind you, you can't go much further North than Gateshead, but let's face it, anything north of Brum can be considered NORTHERN.

greeting:
Alright lads ?
Sorry I couldn't finish the season this year, but the work will keep sending me to the wildest corners of the world. The broken arm has healed ok, say thanks to Wheaty for landing on it with the guard he was mugging at the time. No AF teams over here so I've tried abit of basketball, my only advantage is being 6'3" but I don't have much of a clue about the rules so play it as if I was still a linebacker. Hopefully I be back in time for the season in 2000 and the usual pillage around Amsterdam, best of luck in 1999 !!

USA , Glens Falls, New York State

greeting:
I have played football for the Glens Falls Greenjackets , semi-professional football team for 15 years now. I always enjoy hearing about any maniac who ventures onto a football field to do battle. I love the game and respect anyone who plays it. If any of your players ever venture into the US., and would like to see our version of gridiron war, we would welcome you to watch or even play. You see , I feel a kinship to you , for I also played 8 years of rugby for the Schenectady Reds Rugby Football Club. They are a very good club, but I realize that we are emulating your game not improving it. We are about 45 minutes north of Albany, New York. If you would like to corispond to our coach and owner you can e-mail him at... Coach1928@aol.com
Good luck to your team and good health to your players

RIVERSIDE CALIFORNIA

greeting:
I just read your "A Bit about Britball" and in just a couple of paragraphs the story of Britball and its evolution to where it is today is quite clear. Direct and to the point.
I was lucky enough to be a part of the American Football scene in the 80's when C-4 brought the game to the UK. I got the opportunity to be a part of it with the then Stretham Olypians. (1985/86) By reading bits and pieces (when I can find them) I have followed the decline of the game. It's sad. The bickering continues and that will kill the game. I loved coaching there and the folks that shared our successes, it's a shame that the vigor of the 80's was lost.
Granted, Rugby and Soccer probably were factors in the decline of the game. However why then is the sport still so strong on the continent? What are they doing right? As one of the pioneer coaches in britball I guess I may be allowed to speak up. I have plans of coaching in the UK again, I just hope there will be a game & league to do this.
Sorry, for getting carried away.. Nice page and I will visit often. Please feel free to E-Mail me about the British Game.

Thanks J.D.

Gary, Chip
Just thought I'd let you guys know I'm still alive. Trying to finish that degree, 16 years and still going. Coaching in a different sport for the majority of the time. I do girls and boys swimming at my old school, Pueblo County High School. Have had several great athletes. Also assist with the football team, death is the only way to make the payroll!
When I get the E-mail address, I'll let you send me info.
Hope all's well in the land of PAUL SMITH! JOKE! By the way Newcastle Brown is available so I don't shake to bad here in the States.
