Gentlemen,

 

            Welcome to the 2008 Girard Pre-Season Jamboree, we are please to have five teams this year. As always, the goal of the pre-season jamboree is to get playing time for the kids and get a chance to compete against as many teams as possible. Each team will play two games on Saturday and two games on Sunday for the ABC division, D division will be all done on Saturday. Every team will get the same number of games and will get the opportunity to play everyone. In order to achieve this volume of games the schedule will be tight and we will attempt to achieve three games per hour with the following format:

 

 

  1. Games are 15 minutes long with continuous clock and no half time.
  2. Each team will be able to stop the clock 1 time per game. This is not a time out, but a stoppage of the clock in order to get one more play.
  3. The two teams up for the following game must be lined up at the end zone prepared to take the field.
  4. While the teams on the field are shaking hands, the first possession coin toss will take place. The game will commence promptly there after.
  5. It is important that all coaches keep in mind that the closer we stay to a game starting every 20 minutes, the better the chance we will not run behind at the end of the day. Saturday is less of an issue; we would like to make sure that Sunday does not run behind.
  6. Please see me for designated area for warm up.
  7. Medallions will be awarded to the three teams in each division achieving the most points. The point structure is as follows:
    1. Win-   3 points
    2. Tie-     1 point
    3. Loss-   0 points
  8. In case of a tie in total points achieved the tie breaker is head to head, win/loss and the second factor is a total points differential, points scored minus points allowed.
