As we get about a month in to the Fall season, the news is coming fast and furious for the Spring leagues. That has me excited, and what’s more, teams and personnel are sending us their news. We haven’t gotten all of the news, but the past week, a lot has come down.
If you notice on the front page, a lot of stories were posted on Thursday night/Friday morning (October 9, 2009). Teams are announcing tryouts, dancer tryouts, Spirit Girl tryouts, mergers, schedules and location of games. We are getting stories and press releases from teams that we have never heard from before. Dfwfootball.net is becoming a major player in semi pro and minor league football, both indoor and outdoor, men’s and women’s .
I have had the pleasure of meeting players, coaches and owners all over what some have called the best sports area in the country. Further, I know that the DFW area is a great place for other kinds of sports as well. A few weeks ago I met a member of the staff for the Texas Outlaws of the Professional Arena Soccer League. And who can forget the recent success of the hockey Brahmas, and the Fort Worth Cats and the Grand Prairie Airhogs baseball teams?
Keep us bookmarked. We are trying to do our best to offer major coverage for the semi pro football teams. We have plans for a new e-newsletter which some of you have already signed up for. It will be called the Last Yard, and you can sign up by clicking on this link.
I have talked to at least two owners about helping them sell their season tickets at Dfwfootball.net. We are going to set up a directory with all of the teams’ information so that when someone wants more information or learn how to try out, it will be easily accessible. We are also going to set up a “classifieds” section on the site which will also help connect teams and future players as well as give folks a chance to advertise any jobs that they need filled.
For you business owners, more advertising opportunities will be available beginning in January of 2010. This site is more visitors every week! You don’t want to miss the opportunity to reach a growing audience within a unique niche.
For now, I urge football fans at this site to be ready to watch the UTA Mavericks football club play. They will have two home games on the 17th and 24th of October. Let’s get out and support them! They travel to Alabama this weekend to take on the Concordia Hornets. Go Mavs!
