Central Valley Coyotes News Release
FRESNO – The Central Valley Coyotes have finalized their 2005 schedule in the six-year-old arenafootball2 league. The season opens up on the road in Bakersfield when they take on the division rival Blitz on April 2 at Centennial Gardens, a place the Coyote’s called home before moving to Fresno in 2004.
Central Valley, who is in their fourth season, will play their home opener against the Arkansas Twisters at Selland Arena on Saturday, April, 23 at 7:30 p.m.

After CoyoteÂ’s home opener against Arkansas, Memphis will be the only other non-divisional opponent Central Valley will host. Other non-divisional contests include road games against Amarillo (May 21) and Oklahoma City (April 16).
Along with a league-wide bye during the first weekend of July (Week 14), all 20 af2 teams will have an additional bye week. Central ValleyÂ’s week off comes after the season opener (Week 2).
