"It's been really fun" - first milestone for Nordic Storm

Nordic Storm are facing an exciting first season in the European League of Football. Storm quickly developed into a new force. Although the squad has already been strengthened with well-known players such as MVP Glen Toonga and Championship Game MVP Jadrian Clark, some questions remain.

How will Storm perform, how will the home games go, how many fans will come? After all, around six months after the club was founded, there are many premieres to come. Many processes are new and need to find their way.

This also applies to the first workouts - this milestone has now been taken. For the first time in the history of the young franchise, the players came together on the training pitch. “We're all new, and it's been really fun and a lot of hard work as we chart a path forward,” says John Shoop, first head coach of Nordic Storm history. The experienced coach knows what it's like to join a new team. Nevertheless, the new situation has surprises in store: “The most impressive thing about this team has been the player's work ethic. We've set a strong tempo and all members of our team are working incredibly hard.”

However, the first session was exclusively for the Homegrowns. From April 7, the E- and A-imports will also be allowed to join practice. This also applies to all other ELF teams.

But there are still a few weeks and training sessions left. Storm will play their first ELF game on May 18th, 1pm CET in the LIDL-Arena, Will Switzerland against the Helvetic Mercenaries. Their first home game will follow on June 01, 1pm CET against Berlin Thunder.
