Re: [FTC]: Block Party Events

Last year there were 3 or 4 scrimmages in the Chicago area between December and March. I have not heard whether the same teams will be doing it again this year. In previous years, Illinois was done with their state championship in December, so there was time for such scrimmages. This year they have extended their season, added 2 more qualifying tournaments (check out the Marion and the Decatur Qualifiers), and are not holding their state championship until February 22.
If some group decides to hold one or more scrimmages in this area, I will make sure it gets on the www.ilfirst.org/ftc/ website as well as posting an update here also.

Good Luck this year! Hope to see you in Iowa!

Marc
