The Bristol Aztecs are a British American football team based in Bristol, England, at the SGS WISE sports academy of South Gloucestershire and Stroud College, Bristol,[1] which is also the base for a number of other sports teams such as Bristol Academy woman's soccer team.
Overview
The Aztecs field a senior team in the Premier Division of the BAFA Community Leagues, as well as youth teams and a second adult contact team the Bristol Apache. The team was formed in 1990[2] and has played in all BAFL divisions and been in four Britbowl Finals. They remained in the Premier division following the 2007 BAFL re-alignment, and have competed at the top national level since.[3]
Team colours
The Bristol Aztecs play in Black Helmets (with the Aztecs 'Feathered A' Decal), grey jerseys with orange numbers, black pants, and orange and white socks.
2010
The Aztecs had their strongest start in many seasons, winning their first seven games straight and beating the Sussex Thunder, the Coventry Jets and the Farnham Knights both home and away. Two defeats against the London Blitz and a home-win reverse against the London Cobras secured second place in the BAFA standings; Ultimately the Aztecs could not capitalize on their season record, losing again to the Jets in the playoffs.
The youth team fared better however, blanking the Kent Exiles 30-0 in the quarter final, then coming from 28-6 down to overcome the London Blitz in the semi final to make the national finals at Worcester's Sixways stadium. Meeting the undefeated Lancashire Wolverines in the bowl game, the Aztecs rolled to an impressive 36-14 victory to become youth national champions for the first time.
