MAR Area Scrimmage/Practice Fields

[Akash Rastogi]

Does anyone know if any MAR teams will host a scrimmage or open field day for 2013? I know team 41 did last season.

Would any teams in or around the Philly area be interested in housing a communal practice field? Do any teams already currently have this?

If you're a MAR team, please shoot me a PM about this if you are interested. I'm trying to have a practice location picked out and get a group of teams together to fund and build a full size wooden field.

Thanks,

If contributors allow, please publish the list you come up with. We have a field now that we'd love to offer, but we can't yet guarantee we'll still be there at the end of build season.

[Akash Rastogi]

Will do, Siri! If you could, keep us posted on your work space situation as the season gets closer. A field so close to Philly would be amazing to share.

Talk with 1218.

I cannot promise anything, but we will certainly be looking into hosting this again. I think it was a great asset to many teams, including ourselves.

If teams in the area are hosting a scrimmage or want to attend a scrimmage, please post up in this thread. Team 41 is most likely hosting one on Feb 16 or 17th and is looking for a list of interested teams. Please reply in the thread!

Saw that on my facebook feed linking to this thread. I know of at least one team in the relative area that would like to go to something like that, team 694.

I'm sure that 1370 will be interested this year if some other team is willing to host an open scrimmage.

We can't host a scrimmage, but can have one (maybe two) team at a time down to our practice field. We've got a welded pyramid*, high, middle, low and pyramid goal (team drawings), and feeder station (team drawings with correct slides), all on approximately the correct carpet.

We usually run on a half-field setup, but for the last weekend we're planning on expanding to full court and walling it in. (if we're ready in time!)

PM me if you'd like to come. We're in Eagle (Exton), PA, right off exit 312 of the PA Turnpike.


*Note we undersized it by 4" horizontally, but all horizontal rung heights and all angles are correct. It's conduit with the appropriate OD. The pyramid goal has chains and is the official interior size (team drawings), movable on top to square it with whatever pyramid surface you'll be climbing up.

Garrett from 41 shot me a PM saying that there should be announcement out soon to MAR teams for their scrimmage. Feb. 16 AND 17.

I'll keep this thread updated.

Oooooh, sounds like fun! Hopefully we can attend.
