The Fox in two years have become a Championship organization and hope to build on that success with the recruitment of new team members.

Rob “Pops” Brown, owner/general manager for the The Clarksville Fox Women’s Semi-Pro Football Team said:

“As you already know, the Fox finished up their season as the IWFL Tier Two Division Champions and the youngest women’s full contact football team to play for the national Championship in any of the top leagues in women’s football. We are very excited about that accomplishment and want to take the next step in 2009 and WIN the 2009 IWFL National Championship. In order to do this, the Fox is starting now with off-season conditioning and taking sign-ups for the team’s tryout for the 2009 season.”

The Fox will have four sign-ups, one each month starting August 30th followed by a tryout on December 13th. All the sign-ups and the try-outs will be done at Northwest High School in Clarkville.

“he Fox was blessed with a great team of players coming from as far as Memphis, Evansville, Bowling Green, Nashville, and the Clarksville Fort Campbell area to play on the team with the best coaches in women’s football headed by Ron Graham.” — Rob Brown

The Clarksville Fox (the Youngest Women’s Full Contact Football Team to ever play in an IWFL championship game) will play the Montreal Blitz (the first team from outside the United States to play in a women’s full contact football championship game) for the title as Champions of the IWFL Tier Two.

Dollywood has generously donated park tickets to the players when they win.

The inaugural Tier II championship game is unique in several ways. Not only is this the first year this title will be awarded but it also the first year one of the contenders is not from the United States, making this the first ever international women’s tackle football championship game!

The Montreal Blitz (Le Blitz de Montreal) defeated the Carolina Phoenix on Saturday June 28 to advance to the
Championship game. The Blitz, in existence since 2002, has been a constant force in women’s football since
the team began. Every year building closer to thesuccess they now are realizing. As the first Canadian team to compete for a women’s tackle football championship, the Blitz are leading the way in their country for women and girls that aspire to play this great sport.

On the other side of the ball we have the quintessential all American small town team, the Clarksville Fox. The Fox, founded in 2007 have enjoyed strong fan support from their community and created success on the gridiron in record time. Defeating the New England Intensity on June 28, they became the youngest team in league history to earn a trip to an IWFL Championship.

“Both teams represent the tenacity and heart universal in every Tier II organization. As we approach this historic Tier II championship game we can all remember our sports roots and celebrate its future in these two teams. They play despite small rosters and small budgets, sometimes seemingly against all odds. They
play because they couldn’t imagine not playing. This is the common thread in all IWFL players. They never give up and never allow anyone to deny them their dream. This is who we are. This is the spirit the IWFL was founded on,” said IWFL Chief Executive Officer, Laurie Frederick.

The Fox would like to invite everyone in middle Tennessee and Kentucky to come out to Northwest High School in Clarksville, TN. on June 28th to watch them take on the wildcard team, the New England Intensity, in the playoffs.

The gates will open at 6:00 PM with inflatables for the kids to play on, merchandise booths, and concessions. Tickets are $10.00 with all children 10 years of age and younger will be let in free! Those wanting to tailgate that Saturday are invited to bring their grills and party in the parking lot at Northwest High School, but remember alcohol is not allowed on school property. The kick off will be at 7:00 PM. Come out and support the best woman’s football team in TN and the surrounding area, the Clarksville Fox, in the IWFL Tier Two’s playoff game between the first place team the Fox and the wildcard team. The winner of this playoff game will go on to the IWFL Championship game in Chicago in July.

The Fox would like to dedicate this game to their fans and to the men and women of the United States Armed Forces. In part of showing our appreciation for the US ARMY, the games special guest doing the coin toss will be the Rear Detachment Commander of the 101st Sustainment Brigade LTC Jayme M. Sutton accompanied by Fort Campbell’s 101st Honor Guard.
