Collision at the Causeway takes place this month

COLLISION AT THE CAUSEWAY

September 16,      2015

Berkley  Brean Field, LaSalle Secondary School, Kingston, On

Our intention is to have a multi team invitational.  There will be pools of equally seeded teams. The seeding will be done using a number of criteria: school size, last year’s record, number of returning players, etc. (please see attached Football Day Information Sheet). Each team will play a scrimmage, utilizing the rules included, against each pool member.  Each pool will have non-traditional rivals.

The Kingston Football Officials Association will be using the tournament to instruct and mentor its returning and new officials.  Two fields will be in use.

Coaches will be permitted on the field during the play and one coach can engage in the huddle to communicate with their team prior to scrimmage.  If any member of your team requires the use of a tinted visor, please have a look at the 2014-15  Rule Book.  Medical personnel will present for the event.

The registration fee will be $200.00 for one team or $350.00 for two teams.  Previous concerns of finding exhibition game opponents, arranging for officials, and being careful not to demonstrate too varied a playbook have been eliminated.  Your only problem will be: Being ready for some football.

The teams will be selected on a first come basis.  Do not miss your opportunity to join in the fun.

Games will be  scheduled  on Wednesday for the following start times: 10:00  11:00  12:00, 1:00,  2:00,  3:00,  4:00 p.m.

Please complete the Football Day Information Sheet and e-mail back to confirm your registration.

Yours truly,

Collision At The Causeway Committee.
