The Carolina Railhawks had a great season this past year, finishing second in their league. The team plays out at the SAS fields and will be having open tryouts on December 6, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. It will costs $75 to tryout and two players will be chosen to head to Railhawks training camp in the Spring of 2010.
Think you have what it takes? Call 919-859-KICK (5425) or go to the Carolina Railhawks website for more information.
The question now is, what league will the Railhawks actually be playing in, if any?
Very true, Jonathan. I think the USL thing will work itself out though.
The new head of USL seems intent on forcing out the Canadian clubs for showing sympathy toward the TOA teams. Adding those two clubs would make it relatively simple to form a new FIFA-sanctioned league.
