Team
Notes: In May 2006 Dave Pankhurst had a dream. He dreamed of a day when Bedfordshire
had it’s own American Football team. Not any old team. Not for him a humdrum
team that would be no better than mediocre, Pankhurst’s vision was of a fully
formed team. A team with an eager group of players tutored by some of the best
coaches in the country. A team with one of the best youth set-ups in the country
producing a steady stream of tomorrow’s star players. An impressive team run
well both on and off the field. A team that sets itself higher and higher goals
and achieves them. A team everyone in the area will be proud of.
Pankhurst assembled a group of like-minded individuals to help his dream
become reality, and thus the Bedfordshire Blue Raiders were born. Our journey
has begun (from http://www.bedfordshireblueraiders.com/about.aspx?Section=History).
