Our Year: Stirling Clansmen Film (Preview)



The Clansmen are unlike any other UK-based university level team. Most games, and most teams have a predisposition of believing
they're not great players. Of believing they can't be a great team. They take football as an evening and weekend game, something they do for fun and they don't take it too seriously.

From everything I've seen, there are only a few teams whose attitude flies in the face of this engrained attitude to university sport (not even limited to football). The two teams that met in this seasons university final definitely define professionalism, the Birmingham Lions and the Clansmen.

In an effort to commemorate what is now a shining light in Scottish American Football, the guys over at Gridiron TV have taken the time to not only film several university games through the season (including the finals) but have also produced a film tracking the spectacular unbeaten season the Clansmen have jsut completed.

I hope to see the film very shortly, but for now there's a preview available, as well as highlights from the University Finals.
