| PLAYERS START TO FILL 2008 ROSTER With the first mini camp out of the way the Greyhounds began conditioning practices On Saturday Jan.26th. Coach Beeks said that he is already seeing some of the talent start to make cases for starting positions and playing time. This is where players set themselves apart showing up early for conditioning and participating in practices. I am still receiving phone calls from players inquiring about joining the team. Coach Beeks stated that the recruiting process will not stop and adds pressure to those players that are losing their competitive edge . At this point we have 28 players On the Greyhounds roster and look forward to the many other players wishing to join the team. Click Here to view the roster. |

| March 7, 2008 STAFF WRITER Today the Greyhounds front office decided to go with a new logo design for their uniform and helmet decal. A new logo will be an update to the current letter (G) with a greyhound at an angle On top of it. The release of the new design will be March 15th. Coach Beeks would like to thank Robert Green for designing the new logo and presenting it to the staff. Robert Green (former Greenville Outlaws minor league team owner) is a current wide receiver with the Greenville Greyhounds team. Coach Beeks stated, " I think that the new logo has a definite appeal and will look good On our new uniforms." |

| LEATHER HEADS CALL On LOCAL TEAM Hollywood didn't research the area for local teams when casting calls were held but that didn't stop Coach Beeks from trying to get in the door to make a pitch for his players to be a part of the movie, his efforts went On unsuccessful. Always thinking of innovative ideas about promoting the team and getting new fans Coach Beeks took another stab at tying his team into the scene of the much anticipated movie "LEATHER HEADS", again he waited and got nowhere; or at least his efforts didn't. However a call was fielded by the Greyhounds front office from the organizing party for the release and premiere of the movie "LEATHER HEADS" requesting the teams appearance at the premiere. Coach Beeks said," this is a great opportunity for the team . The exposure we hope will bring attention to our team as I am sure the local media will be all over this event." Read More |
