Event Details:
WHAT:
This is the 2nd Annual "Kick Til You're Sick" Fall Freestyle Fest hosted by
me, Jon. In attendence last year we had the Philly Footworks Crew to which I
am proud to be a part, a bunch of new local kickers, and of course some of
our favorite advanced players including Bob Riefer, Josh Benham, Nick Miller,
the "Outsider" himself Mr. Jonathan Schneider, Matt Cross and many More, not
to mention the legend himself, the "Enforcer" Kenny Shults. We had a great
turnout last year with around 40 players and we are hoping to surpass that
number this year.
There are some competitions with the possibility for Net on hard wood floors
this year, keep checking the page for a definite answer on this soon. There
will also be the fun-filled Four Square. We will be printing shirts, with a
cost of no more than $10.00 to purchase one.
This event is also a Fundraiser for the AMERICAN RED CROSS, whereby all
proceeds will go directly to the Red Cross for Charity. There is a $5.00
entrance fee for this event as a mandatory donation to the Red Cross.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND & WHY:
This event was a blast last year and will be even better this year. We are
expecting several of the best Footbag Freestyle and Net Players in the world
to attend along with a lot of local players. There will be a lot of people
new to the Competative Arena from the local area and both of the Council
Rock High Schools. It is very inexpensive, and a lot of fun whether or not
you compete. The majority of this is a Jam/Convention of Footbaggers from
all over to have a great time. If you
Footbag/hackeysack/kick/shred/freestyle or have ever done so or are
interested in learning more about it, this is the place to be.
This is the Final Update and everything is a go for Saturday, November 6th!
