YAKIMA, Wash. — The Yakima Valley Warriors finally have a schedule and will shortly start to have the players for their inaugural season of indoor football.
Yakima Valley will debut in the American Indoor Football Association with a pair of road games — March 20 at the Wenatchee Valley Venom, and March 28 at Wasilla, Alaska.
The Warriors’ home debut, in the SunDome, is April 3 against Wenatchee Valley, followed by another home date April 10 against the San Jose Wolves.
“Overall, we’re pleased with the schedule,” said Warriors owner Michael Mink, who is also co-owner of the league. “It’s nice to open with an in-state rival … and the (home games) are spread out nicely.”
Yakima Valley will play at total of 14 games — seven home and seven away — with the regular season ending on June 26.
Season tickets are currently available, either at the SunDome ticket office, or on the team’s Web site at www.yakimavalleywarriors.com
Single game tickets are expected to go on sale in mid-February.
Next up for the Warriors will be their first player tryouts, set for Saturday, Feb. 6 in the SunDome.
Interested players must be at least 19 years of age, and will be charged a $50 fee.
The team plans on inviting at least 12 players from the tryout to training camp, which will begin in early March, Mink said, adding that the Warriors will have 35 to 40 players in training camp, with 25 making the final roster.
Fans are invited to attend the tryouts to view the seating arrangement for games. Team merchandise will also be available for the first time, Mink said.
For more information, contact the team at 509-249-1110.
