Come One - Come All -- to the 15th Annual Vancouver Open! We will be
holding Singles Net, Doubles Net, Golf and Freestyle competition.

Intermediate/Novice and/or Women's categories. If there are not enough,
then welcome to Open!
Freestyle competition and Four Square will depend upon the
number of folks interested as well.

$20 for Open/Intermediate w/o shirt
$5 for novice only(includes KFA membership for one year)

This is NOT an IFPA Sanctioned event. This is an IFPA (optional sign
up) event. Players add $10 if you're not already an IFPA member.
This signs you up with the IFPA for one year and your results will be
recorded and used to determine your ranking at other IFPA events. More
importantly you're supporting the IFPA towards its goals of making
Footbag a more recognized and legitimate sport.
Registration will be held from approx. 7pm to 9pm at the Sunset Grill
Friday eve August 23rd (Yew St. & York in Kitsilano - directly south of
Kits Beach up the hill) We'd like to register ALL or as many as

SPECIAL MESSAGE FOR FREESTYLE
Hey all!! You're hereby invited to come and shred yourself silly!!
There'll be shred circles, but we're planning to run Routines (ranked
judging), Shred 30, and maybe a Big Trick or Sick 3 contest depending on
numbers of interested competitors and time available. Also, 4-Square
and maybe consecs for the newbies.
So stand up and be counted!! We want your game here in Vancouver. Remember
Worlds 2000? Nothing has changed, it's still as beautiful as ever!!

Traditionally this has been a net event but the times, they are a
changin'. There's some extremely talented local players in the hood and
they're coming into their own. However, they need inspiration and
encouragement from the big boys and girls of SHRED. So far, we expect
most of the Victoria crew (Allan Haggett, Jeremy Kumbruch, Jubal Hume,
Matt Emmings, Dylan Fry). I went to the island to play with these guys
last month and they're on fire! Can't wait to see 'em again. If you're
coming *please* let Leanne and I know.

Skateboard, In-Line, and Freeski. Let's show 'em some shred too!!
