THE NFL Europe League's 12th season kicks off this weekend with all six teams keen to make an all-important fast start to the 2004 campaign. Nine of the previous 11 World Bowl winners have been successful in Week 1 action.
The season gets underway on Saturday April 3 as the defending World Bowl champion Frankfurt Galaxy (0-0) plays host to the Amsterdam Admirals (0-0) at the Waldstadion. Both meetings between the two clubs were decided in the final minute in 2003, with the Admirals emerging victorious on both occasions.
The Week 1 action concludes on Sunday April 4 with the Cologne Centurions (0-0) making their NFLEL debut on the road against local rivals Rhein Fire (0-0), who will be led by Dallas Cowboys quarterback CHAD HUTCHINSON; while the Scottish Claymores (0-0) will take their league-best 7-2 opening day record on the road to face a Berlin Thunder (0-0) team that has never won in Week 1 (0-5).
Injury categories are as follows: Out - Definitely will not play Doubtful - 75 % chance will not play Questionable - 50/50 chance of playing Probable - Virtual certainty of playing
