THE SCOTTISH CLA‘IMORES

National Stadium, Hampden Park, Glasgow, Sat 21 Apr.

It is time for the 2001 NFL Europe League and the home talent of the Scottish Claymores will be kicking the season off on Saturday 21 April when they face their German rivals, Frankfurt Galaxy.

Unlike other sports, it’s not just a game; it's a day out. The entertainment starts at 12.30pm in the Party Zone with beer tents, food, music, DJs, merchandise, rides and the NFL experience as well as plenty of razzmatazz. In true American style, the cheerleaders will also be putting on a high-kicking show and whipping the crowd into a frenzy.

Off the pitch, the Claymores are donating books, gridiron starter packs and sporting equipment to schools as part of the council’s Glasgow Schools Initiative. Some of the players and cheerleaders will be visiting schools and encouraging attendance and healthy eating as well as promoting the anti-drug message to the pupils. All school I ids in the area will also receive a ., ee ticket for a Claymores game at Hampden so they can enjoy the whole NFL experience and, hopefully, see the team win their way to the top of the league.
