Hi, I thought you guys might be interested to know that the other week the British team beat the French at American football in France. It was a massive victory as we played them at their purpose built national academy, with their full time coaches and players on scholarships. Our guys are all amateur and have amateur coaches, they players all paid to get to France themselves and play for the love of the game.

The Yorkshire Rams had a player on the GB team and we are proud that he played.

The picture below shows what their QB had to put up with all day.

Ha ha, never even thought of that...

Final score was 13 - 6, at Amiens where the French national American Football academy is.

PS - Hello to everyone at Celina Sports, I believe Paul spent another month's pay on stuff from the store last time he was over.

PPS - Good luck to the Bobcats on Friday
