Heads up on Junior teams coming to Nationals in LA (June 26,27,28)

[Gustavo Pesce]

Hi all - This meant for USA. News about Juniors/C-D level teams at Nationals: 

-Roger Bacon will send 1 or 2 teams of Juniors with 1-2 adults each.

-USA Male U19 team will play as a team. 8 of 11 players will attend. 3 reinforcements will be added (only 1 adult).

(FYI: the U19 team will compete in "Age groups" World's in August in Spain).

-San Francisco Kids program will send an underage team with 8 12-16 year old players plus 2-3 adults.

I was hoping to encourage those in the fences to form:

-More Junior/adult teams!

More "any age" teams at this level. Based on what I heard from Nationals last year in Minneapolis, I am assessing the level to be around that of these 6 teams below. So Chicago's old schoolers, Minnesota full looners and Denver's oyster's: This email is for you. If you cannot make all the three teams again, get on to contact each other to make at least 2. 

I would "happy" (ok, happy is a stretch, but I'd do it) to serve as hub for forming teams for this level. I already heard from two players looking for a team. So if you are interested in playing at Nationals in the "bottom of the C" or the D division, and don't have a team, I would try to help out. You could also contact folks from these three teams I mentioned too.

C7	RB Varsity Team
C8	Old School Chicago
D1	SF Sea Lions
D2	Full Loons
D3	Rocky Mountain Oyster
D4	RB JV Team

So c'mon, form the teams and get your flights for LA this week!

Cheers,

Gus
