I have just joined the Welwyn Hatfield Mosquitos and am looking to spread the word, if you fancy giving American football a go then check out the Facebook page.

The team has been up for 2 weeks now.

We are in the early stages but two of the coaches from the Uni have offered their help and expertise.

Bert Browne said he wants to come down and I think he said Jason Scurfield might pop along to check us out as well.

Feel free to join us.

I love it, I used to travel 4 hours just to train now this one is on my doorstep!

GIBURROWS · 12 Mar 2014 at 15:36

OL/DL usually but will play where I am needed.

GIBURROWS · 12 Mar 2014 at 16:03

In short supply are we?

GIBURROWS · 12 Mar 2014 at 17:08

I know quite a few so maybe we will be well protected as a team.

Not the case in Welwyn/Hatfield area which is why the Mosquitos were started.

We had 14 turn up for training plus one of the coaches from the University of Herts which was a big help, very good practice and if not for work schedules we could have had 18+. We are growing at a steady rate and we are pleased with our turnouts after 3 weeks.

Thanks very much, we really appreciate it.

We are just working on our grant application now.

Shame you are a patriot though, you will be celebrating in Feb I think.

Do you have a mission statement I could take a look at, we have one but it is just one paragraph at the minute?

GIBURROWS · 18 Mar 2014 at 14:59

Cheers buddy.

GIBURROWS · 19 Mar 2014 at 10:14

Thank you kindly.

Just an update: the Mosquitos now train at the Hertfordshire sports village and have had some volunteer coaching from some of the Hurricanes coaches, roll on season 2015!

"Saw the photos on Facebook" PERVERT!

Yeah the women are technically sound so for us guys it is a pleasure to learn from them have them there.

Yeah the Uni guys were massive help so we are all looking forward to working with them anytime they can help out.
