LIVESTREAM EFA: Prague Lions @ Nordic Storm, May 16, 13:00 CET (1 pm, 7 am ET)

AFI | American Football | 05/16/2026

The Nordic Storm (0-0) are set to kick off their inaugural season in the European Football Alliance (EFA) against the Prague Lions (0-0) this Saturday. Both teams are determined to make a strong impression as they begin their journey in this exciting new league.

Prague Lions: New leadership and fresh talent

The Lions enter the EFA with a new head coach, James Brooks, who previously served as the team’s defensive coordinator. Brooks will look to build on last season’s strong defensive performance that kept the team in playoff contention until the end. This year, the Lions have added quarterback Jaylon Henderson, who previously played for the Paris Musketeers and won a German Football League title with the Potsdam Royals. Henderson ranked ninth in rushing yards last season and is expected to form a dynamic duo with running back Adam Žouželka. With standout receiver William Patterson returning, who was among the top ten in receiving yards last year, the Lions are poised to make an impact.

Nordic Storm: Ready to make waves

The Nordic Storm are coming off a successful season, finishing with a 10-2 record and making it to the semifinals in their debut year. They are looking to build on that momentum as they host the Lions. Star running back Glen Toonga, who missed last season due to an Achilles injury, is back and ready to contribute. The Storm will also rely on experienced quarterback Jadrian Clark, who was second in the ELF in passing yards last season. With a strong offensive lineup and a solid defense, the Storm aim to start their EFA journey with a victory.

As both teams prepare for this exciting opener, fans can expect a thrilling matchup filled with intensity and determination.
