15th Annual Vancouver Open ? Jericho Beach Park East
August 24-25, 2002
Come One - Come All -- to the 15th Annual Vancouver Open! We will be
holding Singles Net, Doubles Net, Golf and Freestyle competition.
If there are enough registrants, it may also be possible to run
Intermediate/Novice and/or Women's categories. If there are not enough,
then welcome to Open!
Freestyle competition and Four Square will depend upon the
number of folks interested as well.
NET/GOLF/FREESTYLE
Entry Fees: $30 for Open/Intermediate with tournament shirt
$20 for Open/Intermediate w/o shirt
$5 for novice only(includes KFA membership for one year)
$15 for shirt only
$10 for IFPA registration (optional see Chard)
This is NOT an IFPA Sanctioned event. This is an IFPA (optional sign up) event. Players add $10 if you're not already an IFPA member. This signs you up with the IFPA for one year and your results will be recorded and used to determine your ranking at other IFPA events. More importantly you're supporting the IFPA towards its goals of making Footbag a more recognized and legitimate sport.
Registration will be held from approx. 7pm to 9pm at the Sunset Grill
Friday eve August 23rd (Yew St. & York in Kitsilano - directly south of
Kits Beach up the hill) We'd like to register ALL or as many as
possible that night. Late registration will be held on site at Jericho
Beach Park East from 8am to 9am on Saturday August 24th and Sunday
August 25th.

SPECIAL MESSAGE FOR FREESTYLE
Hey all!! You're hereby invited to come and shred yourself silly!!
There'll be shred circles, but we're planning to run Routines (ranked
judging), Shred 30, and maybe a Big Trick or Sick 3 contest depending on
numbers of interested competitors and time available. Also, 4-Square
and maybe consecs for the newbies.
So stand up and be counted!! We want your game here in Vancouver. Remember
Worlds 2000? Nothing has changed, it's still as beautiful as ever!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-------
Traditionally this has been a net event but the times, they are a
changin'. There's some extremely talented local players in the hood and
they're coming into their own. However, they need inspiration and
encouragement from the big boys and girls of SHRED. So far, we expect
most of the Victoria crew (Allan Haggett, Jeremy Kumbruch, Jubal Hume,
Matt Emmings, Dylan Fry). I went to the island to play with these guys
last month and they're on fire! Can't wait to see 'em again. If you're
coming *please* let Leanne and I know.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Co
m
e a day early and go to Molson Canadian's Snow Jam (Fri) featuring
appearances by Pennywise, Unwritten Law, and Swollen Members. This two
day event (Aug. 23 & 24) will host competitions in BMX, Snowboard,
Skateboard, In-Line, and Freeski. Let's show 'em some shred too!!
Perfect opportunity to promote the tourney and your talent! Tickets are
$20 CDN in advance at www.ticketmaster.ca and $30 CDN at the door.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-------
Of
course, net players, will have warm up games goin' on Friday at Kits
Beach.
Not to worry, there's lots of surface to shred at Kits too if you can't go
to Snow Jam.
