Team History
One rainy day in late summer, former Blood Bowl star-quarterback Sean Sanders sat in a provincial stadium and was nauseated by the poor performance on the pitch. It was at exactly that moment when he decided to form his own amateur team and try his luck as team captain and coach.

Calling some of his former team-mates he quickly got some hints and signed contracts with the infamous Blodgers siblings. Two brothers and her sister who earned their fortune in street bowl or 7s games... mainly by betting on their own wins.

Another influx to the team came from Saint Albanie's College for girls who got a Blood Bowl team but was traditionally not allowed to participate in the regional league. Heather, Shannon, Daphne and Christine were glad to join the team and finally get the chance to pit their strength against the other teams of the province.

During season one coach Sanders decided to step onto the pitch once again and support the team as quarterback. Fortunately, the whole season was protected by a lucky star and none of the key players were seriously injured during the first eleven matches. But unfortunately, Daphne Dauntless suffered a smashed knee against the Bardin’ Dwardins and left the squad just before the end of the season. Scouting for a replacement, coach Sanders quickly found Hazel, Heathers sister who stood out at the try outs because of her swift feet and sure hands. Even though Heather was not pleased at all to see her little sister on a Blood Bowl pitch, she eventually agreed to mentor her.

Coaches Corner
after Game 4 (1st match @ Piggy Porkers)

I know we have had a poor start to the season. Two losses and two draws. Those are not the results we were all working for. Belive me, I am as disapointed as you are. But also belive me this: It was an honor to stand next to you on the gridiron today and I know there are better times to come. This team is young. We did only train together for three weeks before we started the season. Give us some time, some more training, some more games together and we will advance and become successful.

Now go to the ice bath, get your wounds treated and get some distraction. We will start training the day after tomorrow. See you there. Heads up, we will come back stronger!

after Game 7 (2nd match @ Team Nessheim)

I am not quite sure if I should thank you for attending todays conference. Today you come as fans and want to celebrate with us, but only three weeks ago you circled above our heads like vultures around a carrion.

We all know it was a bumpy start to the season. And I want to thank all those who believed in us for their trust. Only because of them we were able to continue our work. The four game winning streak proved us right.

And without loosing many more words I want to promise we will not reduce our efforts. We are second to the Norse with some promissing teams on our heels as well. The season is not done yet. We still can make it to the top and we need to fight back any chasers.

after Game 8 (1st match @ Leaping Dryads I)

Our start to this season seemed to prove all those right who did not allow Saint Albanie's league participation in the last decades. Human, Vampires and Elves alike, they all thought Blood Bowl should not be played by a female-only team.

But we will prove the opposite. Yes we are not 100% girls. But everybody knows how much of the team's success ist related to us. We did not yet win against only two of the six teams which formed the former league division. And this is only a matter of time. You hear me? We are here waiting for you. Let's see if you still judge Saint Albanie's girls wrong after our match!

after Game 9 (2nd match @ Leaping Dryads I)

Ashes - The last match day in this Graduation league season leaves fans of fancy elven Blood Bowl behind with two hearts in their chest. While the ‘ProElves’ finally managed to rise like phoenix from the ashes after a spoiled start to the season the ‘Leaping Dryads I’ paid tribute to the suffered injuries of the past weeks. Even if they were finally able to field both of their Wardancers, a major part of the team needed to be replaced by journeymen. And it was only after turn three – Terurtob Pearl just got badly hurt by Liam Liners – that the coach conceded. Not believing that a single particularly low armored Wardancer could win the game. Later this night ‘Leaping Dryads I’ sports director announced that the team will also resign from the league. So, it is ashes to ashes in Athel Loren while ‘ProElves’ rises from the ashes to chase ‘Piggy Porkers Graduation’ for the win of this season.

after Game 10 (2nd match @ 'We'are all that')

PELF! PELF! PELF! We finally got there mates! Six consecutive wins. Nobody saw us coming, but finally we reached the top.

And even better: We only need to win two more games versus our beloved friends from the graves and the north to prove them wrong once and forever. Only two more games to fulfill Heather's oath and make this the perfect season.

after Game 11 (1st match @ ‘Flakeland Blizzards’)

Please, calm down a bit and come a little closer. I know you are euphoric. Leading the ladder. Seven consecutive wins… All that may make you feel like super-elves. Unstoppable… But I want you to remember: It’s only over, when it’s over. The season is still on full throttle. There are other teams out there, playing games and winning matches… You do not want to wake up at the end of the day and find out you started your party too early and one of the other teams took your place at the last minute.

We still have one shot. One shot to make it a remarkable sprint with eight wins from eight games. Only if we focus on that last game, give our very best and put our whole hart into it, we could face even a lost season without shame… So, I want you all to focus! Who knows what sacred Nuffle will throw at us for this last game. But no matter what it is, I want you to be prepared.

Now go for the shower. Today in the afternoon I want to see all of you focused and wholehearted at the training pitch again.

(source: Coach Sanders after the morning training)
after Game 12 (1st match @ ‘Bardin' Dwardins’)

Well done boys and excellent job ladies! This was no easy match. Dwarves, those digging, jealous little stumps. I knew Nuffle would bring up another test for us. And it was a hard first half with the early injuries of Liam and Daphne. Nevertheless, we did well. Their cage rolled down the pitch and we missed an easy opening to them twice, but in the end only a desperate leap could save them a score. I really hope they build statues and sing songs for Ringo ‘Elvenfoot’ after this score.

The second half was exactly what I was asking for from all of you: Commitment! We did not run from them but stood our ground. And in Christines case we stood on Dwarves. Those extra hits to those on the ground really made life much easier. Seven fouls resulting in two dead and two badly hurt dwarves that is result oriented game play. But who could be mad at Christine to start putting her boots in after she saw Daphne’s smashed knee and Liam’s wounds. I think it will make both happy if I tell them – later when I will visit them at the healer’s palace – that their tormentors have been punished by Christine.

Unfortunately, we could not win this game to achieve a ‘perfect sprint’ but seven wins and one draw is a remarkable result for such a fresh team. Even if Heather could not fulfill her oath in the end because Bite Night and Piggy Porkers did not show up to the revenge games, you proved yourself more than worthy. You, we all can be proud, and we will celebrate this last draw like it was another win… but only after our injured friends are back.

In the meantime, I am happy to introduce two new players: Lilliane will support us at the line of scrimmage, while Hazel will try to follow her sister’s footsteps and learn the art of the ball-hawk.

And one last word to all those who wondered about my extra trainings in the last weeks. I was trying to improve my passing skills, to be as precise as I was in recent years, but it seems all those training sessions did not improve my ability to swing the arm while passing, but be more efficient while running…

Hawk's oath
Heather Hawk swore an oath to prove the supremacy of the professional 'gender neutral' approach to Blood Bowl of the Elven Union by beating each of the teams that denied her and her sisters from Saint Albanie's the honor to participate at official league games.
