Bakersfield Blitz News Release


Bakersfield, CA - The Bakersfield Blitz of the af2 have introduced a brand new look for 2004. A change in colors to the current logo has been set, and there will be a new design to the uniforms.

The logo features navy blue, burgundy and silver, replacing the old colors of blue, powder blue, red and orange. The burgundy is the same burgundy used by the University of Southern California while the silver is the same used by the Oakland Raiders.

"There's definitely a local football connection with our new colors," said Bakersfield Sports Entertainment President Matthew Riley. "This is perfect timing for us. We're a new organization and it's a new season. We've experienced a change in identity off the field, and we'll have one on the field now as well."

The fans' first opportunity to see the Blitz in their new uniforms at home will be on Saturday, April 17th when their rivals from San Diego Riptide come into town for the Blitz home opener.

Kickoff for the Blitz season is just 24 days away, as they start on the road against Tennessee Valley on April 3rd. Season tickets for the Blitz upcoming season start at just $63, and are on sale now by contacting the Blitz office at 716-BLITZ (2548) or by stopping by the Bakersfield Sports Entertainment office located in Centennial Garden. The Blitz and Condors have also teamed up for special discounts for those purchasing ticket packages for both teams. All Condors season ticket holders that have renewed for 2004-05 can receive 25% off a Blitz package containing the same number of seats.
