Many of the middleschoolers from Jr. Meat are freshmen now, and really had their heart set on it. However, there's a college tournament the same weekend, and we'll have all of our coaching staff/all of our girls participating in that tournament instead.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15060864.post-1157613586362106562006-09-07T03:19:00.000-04:002006-09-07T03:19:00.000-04:00traditionally ColdFusion and especially TurkeyBowl...traditionally ColdFusion and especially TurkeyBowl have been willing to accomodate teams where they stand as far as gender goes. Most newer teams still struggle with getting females out (why i'm not completely sure), so I'm confident that 4:3 could be bent to 5:2. More than that though could be difficult.<BR/><BR/>as far as expenses, the bid cost for Cold Fusion is $175 like last year. You'd need to get here as well, which should be around $200 for a 15 passenger van rental (double that if you have more players going or need more room for gear) and then about $150 worth of gas. Then you've got meals not covered by the tournament (fri pm and sunday pm). After that, as long as you can get home-stays (which all Eugene tournaments offer), then you're looking at about $30 a player for a sweet weekend of play.<BR/><BR/>most of the time the bigger issue is getting parents/adults willing to make the drive. we had a difficult time this last spring getting down to Slopfest from Eugene since it was an 8 hour drive that only one of the 4 parents had made before. we also took 2 teams, meaning there were about 25 of us.<BR/><BR/>i would love to see you guys there if you could make it. why can't you guys make TurkeyBowl 3? it is going to be so much sweeter if we get all the expected teams.Lukesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11328146977415084713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15060864.post-1157595382089183542006-09-06T22:16:00.000-04:002006-09-06T22:16:00.000-04:00(writer of the first comment)I was asking for info...(writer of the first comment)<BR/><BR/>I was asking for information about the Cold Fusion tournament, because unfortunately my team (Alameda B) will be unable to attend TBO/Turkeybowl. I sent a request for more information, and I was wondering if anyone else knows what sort of expenses would be required for this trip, gender ratios, etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15060864.post-1157564509364441442006-09-06T13:41:00.000-04:002006-09-06T13:41:00.000-04:00wow. i like how much thought you've put into this...wow. i like how much thought you've put into this. it is my guess that a 3 day tournament is something that a lot of teams would like to see happen. if you're one of those teams, we just got our field space guaranteed for at least 12 fields, meaning we're ready for a least 32 teams people!Lukesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11328146977415084713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15060864.post-1157504336830891092006-09-05T20:58:00.000-04:002006-09-05T20:58:00.000-04:00For Cold Fusion, there are typically 4 pools of 4,...For Cold Fusion, there are typically 4 pools of 4, with seeding based on the previous years' performance.<BR/><BR/>For TBO, it depends on the number of teams we have. There are a plenty of options, especially considering there being 3 days of competition. I for one would like to see:<BR/>Day One: 8 pools of 4 with one cross over<BR/>Day Two: Every team reseeded based on previous day into pools of 4 again<BR/>Day Three: 4 Championships played out, each with 8 teams, and have the top 8 start one round later, allowing everyone to see the finals of the main championship game.<BR/><BR/>The bigger question is, =what would you like to see?
