Salzburg Ducks strengthen themselves with an import from North America. The Defender will celebrate its debut next weekend in Tyrol.
Time was short, the Salzburg Ducks had until 12 noon on Wednesday to register a new player. So that he is already eligible to play in the Austrian Football League game against the Tirol Raiders on Sunday. Shortly before the end of this period, the confirmation followed: With Trevin Howard, the Mozartstadt-based team are bringing an all-rounder on board. The man from the US state of West Virginia has already had a number of posts in Europe, including positions in Hungary, Germany and Iceland. What is striking: The 24-year-old mostly acted as a wide receiver, running back or quarterback on offense. With the ducks, however, he is used as a defender, as coach Nick Johansen explains: “With Trevin we are getting a very experienced player who already played on Sunday will play against the Raiders as a defensive back.” Since the offense is already full with the two import players allowed, it would not have been possible otherwise , this is an enrichment for the entire association,” says Chairwoman Christine Gappmayer.
