5th Annual Canada vs USA game - June 4th

 

The 5th annual Canada vs USA game is set for Saturday June 4th, starting at 12:00 noon @ Adams Elementary.  As in years past, this is a best-of-7 game series, with game winners being defined as the first team to reach 5 goals.  A family-friendly celebration BBQ will be held thereafter.

 

Roster space is limited.  Unfortunately we cannot accommodate anyone and everyone who shows up for the game.  Preference will be given to the players who come out to our weekly games on a regular basis.  Showing up once a year just for the Can/Am game won't guarantee you a roster spot. 

If you are interested in playing for either Team Canada or Team USA, you must submit your name to the appropriate team captain for their consideration no later than May 15th.  Team captains are:

 

Team Canada: Vincent Payette

Team USA: Benny Dickinson

 

If you are neither an American nor a Canadian citizen but still want to play in the Can/Am game, send me your name and country of birth.  The team captains and I will work out a fair and balanced determination of what team you should play on.

 

Rules

The choice of which rules to be enforced, and whether we'll have a referee this year like we did in 2009, are under consideration by me and the captains.  At the very least, high-sticking and out-of-bounds will be enforced, on an honor system by the players if we don't have a ref.  More to come on this.

  

Uniforms

Team USA wears blue, Team Canada wears red.  No black instead of blue, no pink instead of red, and definitely no gray.  No exceptions!

 

Volunteers

Volunteers are needed for the following roles:

  • Hosting the BBQ
  • Grillman/woman at the BBQ
  • Scorekeepers/statskeepers

If you or someone you know is interested, please contact me at mdlaing @ hotmail.

 

Cheers,

Mike

Yes, game is confirmed for June 4th.  Tony, email Benny if you want on team USA, he's setting their roster.  Haven't seen you out since last Can/Am game so who knows if he'll let you play ;)

 

For those with dual Canadian and American citizenships (e.g. Cam Green), your country of birth defines which team you play for.  If you're born outside of both USA and Canada (e.g. Robert Quaak), but hold citizenship in one of them, that's who you play for.  Anything more complicated than that will be hashed out by the team Captains. 

 

If you fall into one of those questionable categories, be sure to say so when you email the captains to submit your name for consideration onto the rosters.
