Anyone interested in playing for the Mustangs in 2006 is invited to attend this introductory session (scheduled to finish at 1.30pm) which will include the following.

 

Introduction to American football (for rookies)

Team Induction (for all players)

Skills Assessments

Technique drills

Fitness testing

Workouts

 

In order to participate you should be 18 years of age (Players who will turn 18 before 1st May 2007 can participate on condition that a parent/legal guardian has given written consent). Proof of age will be required. You must have with you gym kit and a pair of indoor trainers. Changing and shower facilities are on site. No american football equipment is required but if you have a (properly fitting) helmet please bring it with you. You should also consider bringing with you a water bottle and any food that you may require. A pen and notepad are essential.

 

The following Sunday (29th October) it is currently intended that there will be a controlled scrimmage against the Sheffield Hallam Warriors (times/location to be confirmed). Existing Mustangs players will be handling most of the duties on that day but new players will get the opportunity to put on (borrowed) kit and check out if they really do want to get involved. Attendance on 22nd October is mandatory for new players who wish to be involved on this date.

 

Training sessions will then be run every fortnight on
