Rebranded men’s football team coming together
Organizers say forty players have committed to being with a local men’s football team.
The Peace Country Cowboys were first established in 2019 and replaced the defunct Grande Prairie Drillers in the Alberta Football League. The team did not play last year because of the pandemic.
Cowboys spokesman Owen Zawyrucha says this is a team for the entire Peace Region, not just Grande Prairie.
“We’re a men’s football team that caters to everybody around the Peace Country, so that would be Valleyview, Grande Prairie, Peace River, all those kind of places.”
