Wolves Return Home to Lair and Await the Tiger
Edinburgh's own American Football team - the Wolves - return home this week following a 3 game road trip. For the Wolves players it's almost strange to be playing at home again after spending all of May traveling the country to play in Glasgow, Dundee and Gateshead. They are looking forward to enjoying some home field advantage as well.

Wolves leading rusher David Molloy is confident the team will put in a good performance "I believe this weekend we have every chance of showing our fans what we really can do. We've cut out our mistakes that cost us the games against Glasgow and Dundee. And with the team spirit riding high - I'm sure the guys will go out and give it everything they have."
The game against Glasgow is the first part of a Double header with the Tigers visiting Edinburgh twice in 6 days (Sunday 1st and then the following Saturday). Wolves players are hoping that their fans come out and support them both days.
"Hopefully they've not forgotten about us after we've not had a home game since April. The other teams we've visited have all had their supporters turn up and make a difference." Explains Wolves GM Douglas Adamson. " It would be great if all Edinburgh Gridiron Fans can come along. Considering the Worldbowl is in Scotland this year - I would expect that will raise the profile for our sport at all levels. This is the perfect opportunity for Edinburgh fans to get out and see some live football this weekend."
The Edinburgh Wolves game against Glasgow Tigers is held at Jack Kane Centre, Edinburgh (Close to Kinnaird Park) on Sunday - kick off 2:30pm.
