AZAFL Metro Footy Tournament

Submitted by Anonymous on December 28, 2002 - 7:59pm

The long awaited information for the AZAFL Metro Footy Tournament in Arizona is now available. It has been quite exciting to receive inquiries from all the teams interested in participating in the tourney. New clubs showing interest include Nashville, Florida, Canada, New York and a mess of clubs in Texas to name just a few.


Which begs the question; how many teams will we allow to enter the tournament?


The answer is: As many teams we can accommodate, providing they get registered.

I would like to take the time to thank the outgoing 2002 USAFL board.

I think that the way the 2002 season was handled showed great leadership within a small group of people that bonded very well. Their dedication and time cant be shown here in words, but we all know that it was a mammoth effort from all.

This October USFooty celebrated its fifth anniversary. It has been an amazing journey. One in which we have made strides on a monthly basis and achieved some staggering milestones, such as the Revolution trip to Australia and over 230 games played in 2002 alone.

Many people have invested countless hours into the growth of the sport, at both the league and club level.

Entering the hotel Westin, I was greeted with the loud and boisterous laughter I have come to recognize as footy related. The thumping of a football on the marble floor in the vast and elegant lobby may have sounded out of place to some (namely the nervous manager), however I knew I was undoubtedly in the right place. I managed to pick out a dozen or so of my footy mates I've come to know over the past 3 years.

Yep, this was going to be an unforgettable weekend.

Its hard to believe that the 2002 USAFL season has drawn to a close. In many ways, my life since October, 2001 has felt like a whirlwind. While unfinished business remains for the league and clubs, I can feel good that we are on the path to continued success.

Under 23 Revolution

Submitted by Anonymous on October 6, 2002 - 8:59pm

LeHigh Valley Crocs' Head Coach, Rob Giabardo, has been named Head Coach of the U23 Revolution team to attend the Arafura Games in Darwin next May. The selection committee of Denis Ryan (Revolution Head Coach), Scott Nicholas (Revolution Assistant Coach) and Seth McElvaney (SEAFL President), had a very difficult choice, with four qualified nominees, 3 of whom are current USAFL head coaches. However, the committee felt Rob was the best person for the job. Paul OKeeffe stepped down from the committee because Milwaukees Head Coach, Colin Langley, was one of the applicants.
