Like thieves in the night the Upstate Vikings looted and
vandalized the Greyhounds home field, and after it all
the Greyhounds were only left with a loss and questions.
The team that once was being looked at as the team to
be recconed with are now being talked about as if they
were all hype. With a loss to another regional rivalry
team drops the Greyhounds record to 1 win and 2 losses
and third place position in the division. The Vikings
improved thier record to 3-0 and took a commanding
lead in the division.

The Greenville Greyhounds mission is to provide athletes in
the community an opportunity to promote and develop football
talents and leadership skills of each individual participant that
is accepted by the governing body of the Greenville Greyhounds.
The Greyhounds organization seeks to establish itself and the players as role models and upstanding citizens to the
youth of the Upstate of South Carolina. It is our intention as leaders of the communities we each represent, to deter
todays youth from the usage of drugs, gang membership, and other criminal engagements; instead we will use our
influence to refer them to the importance of education, sports participation, community pride, and self preservation. As
the Greyhounds organization grows in popularity and recognition within the community, we will use our influence to
instill respect, honor, sportsmanship, a stride for a healthy body and mind in each child we encounter. Realizing that
semi-pro football offers each player an opportunity to live out their dreams they also preserve the footsteps for future
players to come.

IN LOVING MEMORY
We remember in our hearts, family members of players that have passed away. The Greyhounds are a family and your loss is our loss.

Mr.Beeks,
I calculated all the kids that might be @ the Mauldin middle school field on June 18th. I suspect 130 kids.I know this may seems allot but they are sooooo looking forward to playing football w/your players. Is it possible that you may bring a couple of cheerleaders for some of the girls? If not that's Fine. Thank you so much for doing this w/the kids here,I REALLY appreciate it.
Thanks, Keva
The kids here have checked out your website and they said your team is in for a battle!!!

The Greyhounds were prepared to take a trip down south to the border of South Carolina to take on the CSR Cobras of
Augusta Georgia Saturday when they were informed that there was not going to be a game. The team morale was high and the
energy was positive amongst the players, Coach Beeks was pleased to see the attitude that the team was taking. It was what I
was hoping for, but not sure if I was going to get a team that could put the pre-season losses behind us and move forward
towards becoming the new BEAST IN THE EAST of the SEAFL. It was if all the guys had not played a game and was eager to
go out and play some football in contrast to the way we had left the field at the end of pre-season. There were people who were
and are still doubters about what our goal is for this year and I think the players are focused and ready. I think we have the
passion back that we had in spring training, the vigor of the team is rejuvenated.
Saturday's game as of now has been recorded as postponed according to Coach Beeks, but circulation around the rumor mill
has the word going around that the Cobras actually forfeited the game. Coach Beeks said, " as of today I have not been
informed by the league that our Saturdays game goes down as a forfeit and a win for the Greyhounds." While the discussion
continues to circulate we will be working on our next game and let the powers to be continue to sort that situation out. While
minor league football is still a work in progress there are still bumps in the road along the way that hinders an organization when
we have to use property that isnt owned by the team, so I certainly understand because some things are beyond our control.
Unfortunately that is the plight that a team owner undertakes when he assumes responsibility for setting games and team
activities involving the teams operations.

Road trip to Charleston a washout for the Greyhounds and gives Greyhounds a chance to
recouperate. Coach Beeks said although the trip didn't turn out right in so many ways, he feels that
getting out on the road was a much needed break for the team. We still have to work on jelling
together but we got this break and we get the week of 4th of July off and I think we will be much
better........
