Posted By: Danny Bobb Posted On: Aug 19th, 2009 Views: 2173 | Touch Tournament Hey Guys, I'm running a tournament on Sunday October 4 at Don Mills CI. The tournament will involve strictly Tier 2 and below teams from TFONT. The reason I am doing this is to give all teams a chance to win big money that is not offered to the lower tiers at TFONT events. I have 6 definite teams so far and am looking at 8 minimum. If you are interested please send me an e-mail. The cost of the tournament is $250 per team and the prize money is as follows: $500- Champions $250- Finalists on the championship side $125- Consolation Champions $60- Consolation finalists The one rule that I will enforce is "No Ringers". This tournament is a chance for all teams that are not in the elite side of TFONT to make great money and it is not fair to any team if anybody stacks a team. The money above will only be that exact amounts if the tournament has at least 8 teams and that is looking very good. Any questions at all, don't hesitate to contact me. This is a great chance to get in some work before the Nationals. Regards Danny Bobb |

Posted By: Scott Posted On: Aug 19th, 2009 Views: 2147 | RE: Touch Tournament Hey Danny Bobb, The tournament sounds like a great idea. The only issue is that we will be running our semi-finals on that day. Will this be more of an afternoon tournament? Might be tough for a lot of Oshawa teams to make it in the morning. Hopefully we can work together so that as many teams as possible can play in this tournament. |
Posted By: Danny Bobb Posted On: Aug 24th, 2009 Views: 2037 | RE: Touch Tournament Hey Scott, I have decided to make it an all day tourny with the first games in the early afternoon to make it easier for any Oshawa team that enters. What I will do is give any Oshawa team the second time slot games to start the tournament, which should be between 12:30-2:00 depending. I will move the tournament to Scarborough and have the final in the early evening. I am hoping this helps. I am very open to making this work as I have received a lot of interest. I want a minimum of 8 teams but will expand the draw if the numbers are right. For instance, I can do something with 12 or 16 teams. If it got bigger like this, then I would get somewhere with at least 3 fields in very close proximity. Also, there would be more money opportunities for me to think of adding to prizes. I want to make clear that this tournament is open to teams who do not get the opportunity to win big money on the TFONT tour. The highest ranked team would be the Scarborough Raiders. I would not accept any team ranked on the TFONT tour higher than that. I will not accept any teams that bring in ringers as I know the rosters of all teams involved. For instance, the Rogues have expressed interest and I would accept them with the Glavics, as they have played on the TFONT tour with them. On the other hand, Brandon Pottle is a member of the Spartans on the TFONT tour, not the Rogues so he wouldn't be allowed to participate. I have nothing but love for you Brandon but I want to avoid the stacking of a team that I saw at the Oshawa Argo tourny. That was a crazy roster with a lot of ringers and there was no way anybody was going to beat them. I'm not trying to be difficult. I want to be fair so that ALL teams have a proper chance to win the $500 by playing teams in their own level. Teams that are in so far are: Dirty Birds Young Bucks (TTFL non tourny team) X-Men ( This tournament/league team does included members of the Buckeyes from this league) Cobras King Gators Raiders I have 4 others on a list including the Rogues after speaking to Mouse today. That is why I am open to increasing the size of the tournament. I hope this helps Any questions, please send me an e-mail or post on here. I will answer all. Hopefully not as long as I just have.LOL Danny Bobb |

We haven't played TFO tournaments in two years but many play on various other teams. This is our Oshawa roster and has been since the season began and for the most part 4 years. Rich Lafoy (retired Oshawa Jet/Fox Forty Whistler) Che Lafoy (Beezzzz) Tony Stewart (Trojans) Seymour Matthew (Dirty Dozen) Mark Spoorenberg (Beezzzz) Heinz Stork (Beezzzz) Tony Chang (Beezzzz) Matthew Chang (Beezzzz) Scott Miscampbell (Dirty Dozen) Craig Wrice (Beezzzz) Sean Imai Matthew Sanchez Tim McCaskie Ryan Dixon |
