[mr.alex]

Ready?!

The IFPA Austrian Footbag Championships (AFC) will take place in Vienna as the biggest footbag event before we host the IFPA European Footbag Championships in July, 2007 (see http://www.vienna2007.eu for more details on Euros '07).

At this competition guests from outside of Austria are invited to join and compete!

Start at http://www.footbag.org/events/show/1159893509 and then follow the links to the AFC site at http://www.footbag.at/afc06 (the site is in German, but you can surely figure it out).

The dates are Friday, Dec. 8 - Sunday, Dec. 10, 2006.

Each of these days are prepared for the players to have plenty of space and time to play, plenty of possibilities to join the planed parties, plenty of food, and even plenty time to rest.

Short Overview:
Friday (holiday in A, CH, I) at 16:00 the on-site registration opens Intermediate freestyle players will play up to the finals on that day, whereas the Open, Women's, and the Doubles will only have their qualifications on this night.

Saturday (about 11:00 a.m.) Footbag Doubles Netters are challenged to play all games and the finals. From 16:00 all players and guests will join the BIG CHILL, with some Live-music, since the finals are set to start at 22:30 p.m. at a location in Vienna's city-center; at a theater called Rote Bar!

Sunday (post-awakening) a never ending brunch with some soft DJ music; but also the more than serious OUTDOOR - GOLF competition will take place.

Registration costs which includes lodging, will be affordable. I.e. the package "Player all IN" will be EUR 25.

Maybe of interest:
The Austrian Footbag Champs are featured by Kick-Mas Jam! This means that there are some traditional acts, will also be carried out on these competition days.

- On Saturday night, players and guests are asked to bring a Kick-Mas present, and will then receive one in exchange.
- Players will not know WHEN the fabulous Kick-Count-Contest will be - they will always have to be prepared for it!
- Culinary winter-food & special drinks
- Shred-Dirty competition (no comment), Chique3, etc, etc, etc..

Registration closes on the 5th December at 18:00.

On behalf of footbag Austria, let's see all quick legs in Vienna!
