Every year, the CEFL is proud to announce new teams that will make the league stronger, more interesting and more relevant, and this upcoming off-season is no exception, with an exciting development on the horizon.
Just days before the playoff semifinals, sad news come from Hohenems. The Blue Devils’ American import Eric Moore has passed away after being involved in what turned out to be a fatal car accident yesterday, going home after the team’s practice.
The game between the Cineplexx Blue Devils and the Zagreb Thunder will not be played this weekend, since the Thunder notified the league they cancel the game and will not travel to Austria.
One of the most recognizable faces of the CEFL for the past three seasons, Gladiators quarterback Bernhard Kamber, will not play football any longer – he has decided to quit because of reasons unrelated to football, leaving the Gladiators with a problem at an important position on the team.
Due to the fact that both Budapest teams, Wolves and Cowboys, play only one game this fall – one among each other – they've been relatively quiet compared to other teams, especially the Wolves. Since the game is a Hungarian league game that also counts for the CEFL, and because of the fact that it's the teams' only game, they were able to circumvent the rules and not register any players for the CEFL fall season.
