Arizona Caliente News Release


(Phoenix, AZ) - The Arizona Caliente, women's football team, announced tryouts for their 2004 Season. The 2004 Season, set to kick-off in the fall, will mark the FOURTH season for the successful full-contact tackle team. The Caliente will be playing with the Women's Professional Football League (WPFL) against some of the strongest women's football teams from across the country.

The Caliente will be trying out those female athletes that not only have the desire to learn and play football, but that are committed to the continued success of women's football as a whole. Football experience is not required, but experience in some sort of competitive sport(s) is recommended.

Tryouts have been scheduled for Saturday, April 17th, 2004 (registration beginning at 12:00pm) and Saturday, May 1st, 2004 (registration beginning at 8:00am). Both tryouts are scheduled to take place at the Tempe Sports Complex off of Warner & Hardy in Tempe. Tryouts are open to the public.

When asked what the team is looking for, Head Coach Gerry Turley noted, "We are hoping to attract quality athletes, who have that passion for football. As the word spreads about the team being here in Arizona, so does the number of phone calls from potential players interested in trying out."

Turley expects a mix of both experienced players and potential "rookies" to be at this year's tryouts, and the team will roster up to 60, although only 40 can be on the "active roster" for each game.

"We are extremely excited about our upcoming season, and are hopeful this will be the year we bring a Championship to the great state of Arizona," stated the team's Owner and General Manager, Jennifer Cada.

The WPFL 2004 Season schedule is set to be released June 1st, 2004. For more information on the Arizona Caliente and the upcoming tryouts, please visit the official team website at www.ArizonaCaliente.com.
