Divisional alignment will make sure you will have competition at your level.

The Games will be “tournament time” (1 hour games) so that means fast paced games where every touchdown and every defensive stop makes a difference.

Hey Great job getting the tourney up and running again. What a great experience playing in a tournament.

So, are there any plans for a Beer garden? Ya know, back in the 80's and 90's we held it at the Vincent massey/ Holiday Inn site and rented out their CC. When I played in the late 70's we had a tournament there and had the beer garden in the hockeyrink. What a blast, andall the great memories and laughs.

Nothing like havin a few bubblies when it's 30 degrees outside after playing some ball.

We haven't done that in ages. That should be a priority. A site with a beer garden. Anyone want to volunter to host or help run it? Just an idea?

We are working on that angle too. Last year we were not allowed by the city to have a beer garden at Optimist Park.

Well If ya need help, I'll certainly be there to drink some beer. I used to bartend, so I could also crack a few for a few hours. Will Darin's Dogs be back? I haven't had one of those since the Assassins Xmas party at the Pal just befoe Xmas. Anyone know where Darrin is located, before I have to start drivin around the city?

Have you heard from any teams yet? Remember that U of Regina team? They were great guys. They had to be the most polite group of players. Wasn't this/that their first time playin touch? Ya have to invitethem back...maybe too near training camp though..... We should invite the U of M to send a team, maybe even the U of Sask, and Calg.

Yes that's the ticket! Make sure we have a beer/wine cooler garden though....er forgot the women may be be drinkin too....oh and hats, we should get some "made in the WTFL" hats. Ya need a hat in the sun, with beer.
