Bergamo Lions

In Italy, the Lions have won the Italian league championship more than any other team 12 times.

The Lions sign and pay American and Canadian professional import players to play for the team alongside Italian players and European import teammates.

A few examples are former New England Patriots running back Scott Lockwood who played for the Lions 1994-1996, former Houston Texans QB Bradlee Van Pelt 2009-2010, and Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Jeris McIntyre.

As well as Canadian Football League players such as running back Tyrone Rush and QB Dan Crowley[1] The Lions have also recruited and signed many American coaches, such as Adam Rita, John Rosenberg as head coach and Brian Baldinger as their offensive line coach.
