Spirit Hat

The Spirit Hat tournament is an opportunity to gain an in depth understanding of Spirit of the Game (SOTG). Experienced players share their knowledge with less experienced players and all have the chance to demonstrate their spirit in 4-45min games. Spirit rules were employed to increase the opportunities to demonstrate spirit during the tournament. However, players were also encouraged to incorporate their own rules as well. This developed into very fun, hilarious and sometimes challenging games.

A member of each team who demonstrated exceptional spirit was awarded a Steam Whistle hoodie:

Team A – Andreas Link
Team B – Coby Markus
Team C – Inmar Givoni
Team D – Aaron Loach
Team E – Jeff Chik
Team F – Emma Katz

August Hat Tournament

The August Hat tournament was held at Riverdale Park East. The day was filled with sunshine and blue skies. We couldn't have asked for more perfect weather! At the conclusion of the tournament, an MVP was selected for each team by their peers. They receive Gaia socks and a water bottle, XS energy drinks from Healthzone and an Airborne DVD. Congratulations to the MVPs
