The Helvetic Mercenaries have decided to move on from head coach Val Gunn. The Swiss franchise made the announcement in a statement on Wednesday evening.
According to the statement, the reason behind the releaese is not of a sporting nature, but a family one, as the decision "was based on internal family matters within Coach Gunn's family".

The current defensive coordinator Brian Billy will take over as head coach. The franchise also announced that Michał Kołek has been hired as offensive coordinator. Kołek has already worked with quarterback Carlton Aiken in the past. 

Last weekend, the Mercenaries celebrated their first win of the season (16-10 against Milano Seamen). On the next matchday, they will travel to Vienna to face the Vikings.
