Report

Player-Coach of the Erris (Mayo) Rams in 2009, Brian Wilson, a native of Glengad, Co. Mayo, played defensive linebacker for Kamiakin High School in Washington State in the 1980s. He went over there on a school exchange program, and knew enough about American Football through watching it in TV in Ireland to have known the rules. When he came back to Ireland he did not think he would ever play American Football again, but when the Erris Rams set up in Castlebar he got involved as a 38-year-old player-coach.

The Kamiakin High School Played AAA Football during the spell he played there, the highest level in Washington State High School Football (they now play 3A). AAA has since been reclassified as 4A. Kamiakin High School won the 3A State Championship in 2016-17. The Football team are known as the Kamiakin Braves.

National Football League Flag Football League Knocknaheeny Cork 2006

Report

In 2006 the National Football League (USA) started a Youth Flag Football program aimed at developing the sport in Ireland and the United Kingdom. This was part of the NFL International Series which started with Regular Season NFL games in London in 2007, and the first community in Ireland to receive an NFL Flag Football program was Knocknaheeny-Hollyhill in Cork, which Special Justice Project Director and Cork city councillor Tony Fitzgerald warmly accepted.

The home-town team, Cork Admirals also developed a working relationship with the NFL and NFL players Association and the NFL Youth Football Fund, a 501 (c) non-profit foundation, which supports the game at youth level promotes positive youth development.

Report

The Major Indoor Lacrosse League, known since 1997 as the National Lacrosse League, has become the Major Lacrosse League in North America and the World with teams throughout Canada, and the United States of America. It played its first season in 1987 as the Eagle Pro Box Lacrosse League with four teams: Baltimore Thunder, Philadelphia Wings, Washington Wave and New Jersey Saints. Baltimore Thunder won the first NLL Championship game defeating Washington Wave 11-10.

The League became known as the Major Indoor Lacrosse League in 1988. The second season saw all four teams return, with Washington Wave again the defeated finalists, losing the 1988 NLL Championship Game 17-16 to New Jersey Saints.

All four teams returned for the 1989 season, although the New Jersey Saints relocated to Long Island and became the New York Saints in the process. The four teams were joined by the Detroit Turbos and New England Blazers, from Boston. Philadelphia Wings won the Championship Game 11-10 over the New York Saints.

After the 1989 season the Detroit Turbos sat out the season and were replaced by the expansion Pittsburgh Bulls. The Philadelphia Wings became the first team to repeat as Champions, defeating New England Blazers 17-7 in the 1990 Championship Game.

The League averaged crowds of 9,614 in 1989 and 11,060 in 1990.

About

The National Lacrosse League is the Major Box or Indoor Lacrosse League in North America and the World. Box Lacrosse is played in an Indoor Arena with 6 players per team, as opposed to 10 for Men’s Lacrosse and 12 for Women’s Lacrosse. It is the National Summer Sport of Canada, and was codified there and played originally by Native Americans in Northeast USA and Eastern Canada. It is still popular among Native Americans, and is the only sport where they can represent their country internationally (the Native American National Team is known as Iroquois Nationals in Men’s Lacrosse and Haudenosaunee in Women’s Lacrosse).
