The class of 2016 is inducted today, seven new faces, seven new stories to tell in the wonderful world of team sports- the blood, the sweat, the tears, the joy, the ego and the pain. All worth it!
The PFL would like to congratulate these seven players on the achievements and hope they look forward to the celebrations of their careers.
Michael Vincent (Quarterback) Morrigan Giants 2001-2012 |
PFL Legends Class of 2016

Training Camp (#TrainingCamp16) has been going for a week (or two for some teams). Most of the last remaining veterans have reported in to their camps- to refine fitness, drills and build comradery with new recruits.
The rookies have been put through the ropes, learning a new set-up, finding a new home and learning what may be an extensive playbook. Plus stars that have changed teams this off-season have to start over- that includes Jeff Holliday, Oliver Parkman and co!
Over this time, as well, will be the battles for starter positions in the PFL. The battle remains for August- and into the two-week pre-season. Teams will scrummage off against each other on set-days near month end.
The next few weeks could be make-or-break for several fringe players, some new opportunities too- as all players striving to avoid injury at this early stage. Ed Brooks and Chauncey Smith have not been so lucky, so far.
