If you've followed this blog for a while you'll know in my free time I like to watch American football. Well this weekend was the culmination of the years efforts and the best teams in the country gathered at the sixways stadium in Worcester for their respective finals.
The finals stretched over the whole weekend and covered flag and full contact from cadet (7 and up) through junior, youth and senior. I must say it was a joy to see the youngsters playing flag American football in the stadium, the look on their faces showed what it meant to them.The big game was of course the senior leagues kitted final which was played on the Saturday evening between the Coventry Jets and the London Blitz. The final was a lot closer than many had thought it would be with some incredible plays on both sides of the ball throughout the game. The final result was London Blitz 34 - Coventry Jets 20. Unfortunately due to me having arranged to meet someone on the Sunday (who didn't turn up) I couldn't stay for the second days events but I'm sure it ran as smoothly as the first day. All in all an excellent weekend of American football.
