(S30) PT 1 - Going International

[deadlunatic]

With the growth of the game of football across the world, some countries keep calling your team to go there for a workshop, to help them be better at the game. Your team decides to send someone in the offseason to travel there. With the offseason now over, who was picked from your team to travel? What country did they end up travelling to? What did they do when they reached there to help direct a workshop?


As the only team in Canada, we are pretty popular with other countries without a single football team in them. As such, we get a lot of northern based countries and fans wanting us to show up and let them see what it is like. One specific country has shown a lot of interest in maybe ending up with a team at some point in the future, and who is that country? If you guessed Iceland, you would be correct! the great country of Iceland is already a tourist popular place, now imagine if they had a football team there as well. So, we decide to send one of our newish guys over there to check it out and run a little receivers workshop. So Mark Walker gets the nod as the number two receiver for a few seasons and two Ultimus championships on his resume as well. Once there, he had to of course get shown around the city of Reykjavik, the capital, to see where he would be staying and of course where the workshop would be. Of course they are putting him up in a baller hotel, the Hotel Borg by Keahotels, if you are ever in the area, I suggest you check it out! Part of the reason this was chosen was for it's close proximity to the Laugardalsvöllur, which is where the actual workshop will take place. There ended up being hundreds of kids and athletes that attended the workshop to get a better idea of what ISFL football is really about. In the end, it was a success and hopefully will at least get more Icelandic players to try out for the ISFL.
