Dear Coach,

You are invited to participate in the ningthannual Keshequa Boys’ Indoor Soccer Tournament held at Keshequa High School. We are again offering three tournaments this year: 1) high school (11th grade & under), 2) modified (7th & 8th grade), and 3) elementary (6th grade & under). The dates of the tournaments are as follows:

Saturday, March25th– Elementary (9:00 a.m.) & Modified (approximately 2:00 p.m.)

Saturday, March 26th– Varsity (9:00 a.m.)

Games will be played in both the high school and middle school gyms. Since both gyms are used, teams don’t have to sit around and wait between games for a significant time period. Four field players and a goalie will play at once. Your team is guaranteed a minimum of three games (last year everyone played at least four games) with the possibility of one or more playoff games. The entry fee for each team is $80. Checks are to be made payable to Keshequa Varsity Club. Deadlinefor enrollment isMarch10th.

Throughout the day a concession stand will be open with plenty of options on site. There will be limited room for spectators to view the games.
