T.O. Jam!!!
(toe jam)
F.A.T. is finally hosting another footbag competition!!! And we want all of you to come!!! IT'S NEXT WEEKEND!!!!
It’s May 2-4 Weekend!!! So that should make it easier for us Canadians, and if anyone wants to stay the extra day (Victoria Day, the 19th), that’s super cool. We will be playing in great parts of the city, and the competition itself will be held in a fantastic gym on the Ryerson University campus!
Details:
WHO: The Footbag Association of Toronto and YOU!!!
WHAT: Shred, Circle Competition, Sick 1 & 3, 4-Square
WHEN: May 16-18
WHERE:Ryerson University, Yonge & Dundas Square, and the Toronto Harbourfront
WHY:: Because footbag is more fun with friends!
HOW: $15 per player.
Beginners, "hackers", spectators, and girlfriends: Free.
But for anyone actually shredding: pay up bitches! Seriously, this space is really expensive, so it's imperative that every shredder pays the fee. The $15 covers the competition fee, as well as snacks and Gatorade.

ACCOMODATIONS
A few crash spaces available: fist-come/most-needed basis.
Hostels in Toronto:
Canadiana Backpackers Inn
http://www.canadianalodging.com
Located just north-east of King & Spadina
Clarence Castle
http://www.clarencecastle.com
Located just north of Front & Spadina
These are both great hostels. They are about the same price, $30/person/night (or less). They are actually very close to the Harbourfront Centre, and fairly close to Union Train Station and the Toronto Bus Terminal, as well as Ryerson/Yonge & Dundas Sq.
You could potentially walk everywhere the entire weekend, we arranged everything within walking distance, but you might want to take a short bus/streetcar ride if you want to save your legs or if you have heavy stuff. The fare for one ride on Toronto public transit (TTC) is $2.75.
We really hope you all can make it!!! Come play and party in Toronto!!! We promise you an awesome, fun, shrederrific time!!!
