    presse information NRW Meister 2018 American Football Club Die Troisdorf Jets steigen in die 2. Bundesliga Troisdorf Jets (Nord) auf seit 1980 fon: 0177-4112290 Troisdorf, 3. September 2018 – Jetzt ist es offiziell! Nach [email protected] dem Abstieg in 2014 kehren die Troisdorf Jets im kommenden www.troisdorf-jets.de Jahr zurück in die German Football League 2 (Nord). Der American Football und Cheerleading Verband NRW hat das für Ihr Ansprechpartner: den kommenden Sonntag geplante Nachholspiel der Jets in Andreas Heinen Remscheid heute endgültig abgesagt. 03.09.2018 Die Partie wird mit 2:0 Punkten für die Troisdorfer Footballer PM-JETS-2018-26.docx gewertet (20:0 Scores) und damit bleiben die Jets uneinholbar auf dem ersten Tabellenplatz in der Regionalliga NRW. Selbst mit einem Sieg in ihrem letzten Saisonspiel können die ärgsten Konkurrenten aus Bielefeld nicht mehr an Troisdorf vorbeiziehen. Das eigentliche Spiel beim Amboss hätte bereits Mitte Juli stattfinden sollen, musste aber aufgrund einer Platzsperre im Remscheider Stadion Reinshagen abgesagt werden. Nun können sich die Troisdorf Jets also die Vorbereitung auf das letzte Saisonspiel sparen. „Meine Jungs haben seit November vergangenen Jahres sehr hart für den Erfolg gearbeitet und werden nun endlich für ihr Engagement belohnt“, sagt Head Coach Andreas Heinen. „Das gilt vor allem aber auch für meine Trainercrew, ohne die der Weg zum Titel nicht einmal annähernd möglich gewesen wäre.“ Die Nachricht von der Spielwertung hätten die Jets sicherlich gerne schon am vergangenen Samstag erhalten, dann wäre die Party nach dem Sieg gegen Essen sicherlich um einiges größer ausgefallen. Aber auch so sind die Troisdorfer glücklich, endlich wieder in der 2.
