Report

Steve Miller caught a spectacular touchdown catch in the dying seconds of the first half to complete a perfect season for the Crawley Raiders. The touchdown and two-point conversion were the only scores of the JGL Youth Bowl in 1994.

The Raiders had finished top of the five-team League, with the Kent Panthers aalso qualifying for the Bowl in second place. Other teams were Brighton B-52s, London Olympians, and 1993 runners-up Park Centre Bandits.

The Junior Gridiron League Youth League was a Two Touch League for 15-18 year olds in the South of England. Two Touch was a variation on Flag Football whereby the ball carrier was tackled by placing two hands on him or her.
