News08.05.2008 Swarco Raiders The British are coming – Swarco Raiders will defend Wattens
Geoff Buffum’s analysis The Headcoach of the Swarco Raiders is warned: “The Jets are hard hitters and very physical. They remind me a lot about the Paris team in 2006. We underestimated them and everyone knows what happened there.” Mojo & 3:0 vs British teams The omen is good though. The Swarco Raiders have a real “mojo” in the person of Steve Rains, former Headcoach of the Farnham Knights. Whenever he was at an EFAF game of the Swarco Raiders they won. Luckily he is coming this Saturday again. In addition to that the statistics also are for the home team: in three games against British teams the Swarco Raiders have always won. Lots of notables at the game IKB CEO Dr. Elmar Schmid will do the honorary kickoff together with the Vice-Governor of Tirol, Dr. Elisabeth Zanon. The second Vice-Governor and sports representative Hannes Gschwenter and Innsbrucks Vice-Mayor Dr. Christoph Platzgummer will be at that international big event. From EFAF Mr. Michel Daum, Director of Finance, will be the official representative.
