The Meadow Broncos are in the process of gearing up for their first game of the season. Friday's home game will kick off at 6:30 against Newcastle, in what will be a rematch of last year's meet-up. The Broncos fell to the Newcastle Bobcats in their previous match-up and are looking for revenge this week according to Head Coach Josh Conner. "It should be an even match up, in which we will be looking for our redemption,” Conner said. The Broncos will look to run an old-school hard-nose offense with a focus on a very aggressive playstyle. On defense the Broncos will again focus on a very "in your face" approach, running a 3-2 defense. Coach Conner, who is in his second year as Head Coach for the Broncos, is confident the Broncos will bring the intensity needed for this game. "They know the plays, and without having to learn new playstyles, they can now focus solely on bringing the intensity they show in practice to the field on Friday."
