This year's league went from a 4-team league with 600 kids to a 9-team league with 900 kids that we anticipate. This year we have with us is the Island Eagles, Southern Wolverines as well as the Northern Falcons. We also have the Southern Cowboys along with our incumbent teams the Moylan's Hals Angels, PacSports Yigo Jets and the GTA TeleGuam Raiders and the Gatorade Guam Giants.
