Announcing: 21st Annual Midwest Regional Footbag Championships
August 6-7, 2005
Location: Maryville Academy
Des Plaines, Illinois, USA
Host Club: MIDWEST FOOTBAG ASSOCIATION
Details: http://www.footbag.org/events/show/1118115847
Events:
Footbag Freestyle - :30 Second Shred and 2 Minute Routines, Trix contest for
novices, Footbag Net Exhibition, Consecutives Contest and competition for
Novice, Intermediate, Advanced in Men's, Women's and Teen categories
This event is held in conjunction with the 16th Annual Spike for Kids
Charity Volleyball Tournament. Literally thousands of Volleyball
enthusiasts are present, with a festival going on including live music, food
and beer booths.
We know freestyle will be a popular event, and we are certain the Volleyball
athletes will be impressed, if not inspired by the action on the footbag net
courts. However, due to the lack of interest in footbag net from our local
athletes, no competition in footbag net will be offered, only as Exhibition.
Special thanks to Freedom Footbags, Worldfootbag.com and Foot-C Net for
their annual support of this event. Thanks to IFPA for considering us for
Sanctioning.
Come join us for a great summer weekend of fun!
Low entry fees, great prizes, tons of fun!
And a party at Ted Martin's (Congratulations to Ted Martin on his induction
into the Footbag Hall of Fame!!!! Go Midwest!) house on Saturday night for
everyone to attend, only 2 miles from the event site. This is the only
event this year where you can meet with the legend himself, Ted Martin, who
kicked 63,326 in a row to gain himself a 10-year+ spot in the Guinness Book
of World Records.
Google directions to:
1150 N. River Road, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Try the http://maps.google.com and select "satellite" to see the park layout.
Out of towners, please contact me directly so I can help to arrange
somewhere you can stay, or to refer you to a local area hotel if you prefer.
Shirts will be included with all intermediate and advanced/open entries.
They will be available for purchase at a discount for all entrants.
Best regards,
Scott Davidson
