The High Country Grizzlies professional arena football team announces its affiliation with the American Arena League.
After careful consideration, the Grizzlies will be joining the American Arena League, which contains 10 teams (making the High Country Grizzlies the 11th franchise) that will be divided into two divisions (Northern and Southern Division). This dramatically changes the Grizzlies travel distance to an average of 4-6 hours.
Teams in the American Arena League include:
- Vermont Bucs, Burlington, VT
- Glens Falls Gladiators, Glens Falls, NY
- Richmond Roughriders, Richmond, VA
- Rochester Kings, Rochester, NY
- Upstate Dragons, Anderson, SC
- Atlanta Havoc, Atlanta GA
- Cape Fear Heroes, Fayetteville, NC
- Florida Tarpons, Lakeland, FL
- Georgia Doom, Macon, GA
- Triangle Torch, Raleigh, NC
“The Grizzlies are very excited to move to the AAL,” says local owner Bryan Bouboulis.
