Blizzard Announce First Major Tryout for the 2011 Season
Green Bay, WI: The Green Bay Blizzard and Head Coach Rik Richards announced today that the team will hold their first tryout of the year on Friday August 27th in nearby De Pere, WI. The tryout will take place at the Sports Emporium located at 1865 Nimitz Drive in De Pere. Registration and warm-up will begin at 7:00am with the tryout starting at 8:00am. The registration fee to tryout is $35 (cash or credit card only) before 5pm on Wednesday August 25 or $50 at the door.
The Sports Emporium is a state-of-the-art indoor sports facility with professional field turf on two fields. Athletes of all skill levels are encouraged to tryout and live their dream of becoming a professional football player. Players must bring their own workout attire for the indoor facility and must be 18 years of age or older to tryout. Be prepared to be evaluated in the following drills: 40-yard dash, 20-yard shuttle, four cone drill, standing broad jump, agility drills, position-specific drills and 8-on-8. This tryout will NOT include kickers; the Blizzard will hold additional tryouts for kickers as well as positional players. Dates and times are yet to be determined.
Head Coach Rik Richards is excited to start building another championship calibers team for the 2011 season. "I look forward to getting back on the field and finding players to bring another championship team to the people of Green Bay," said Richards. He also commented that "We are very excited to announce our first tryout for the 2011 season; you simply don't know where the next great player will come from."
