[edit] History
The Lincoln Bombers were formed in 1987 as a limited company and competed at senior level between 1987 and 1989. The side reached the playoffs in each season.
[edit] Lincoln Saints
The Lincoln Saints, who evolved from the Bombers' original incarnation, participated in the British National Gridiron League between 1992 and 1993. The side won the 1993 BNGL First Division Bowl with a 51-14 win against Redbridge Fire.
[edit] Name Change
After the final Bombers game prior to finding out whether or not they had made it into the BAFL for 2007, it was decided that they would, from then on, be known as the Lincolnshire Bombers. Reasons include media coverage throughout the county, and the desire to represent the home towns of many of the players.
