So you want to play some football? Now's your chance. The Cochrane Midget Lions have space for players aged 14-18 (Grades 9-11) to play right now.
“Absolutely. We'd love to have anybody out, whether they've played before or not, ” enthuses Lions head coach Jud Graham, who in his rookie season at the helm coached the Lions to two playoff wins in 2014 Calgary Area Midget Football Association (CAMFA) play. “If it's a kid who wants to try out for his high school team next year, he can come out and we'll train him up and give him some skills he's going to need. I think someone would get a lot more out of that than going to a camp or something - coming out and actually playing live football against good competition. ”
Cochrane's area of player eligibility includes Canmore, Bragg Creek, Cremona, Bearspaw and Cochrane. Contact coach Graham at [email protected] or visit the team's website at cochranefootball.com
The CAMFA regular season begins April 1 and runs through May. Games are played at Calgary's Shouldice Park.
