Q. Why do I
need to bring my birth Certificate?
|
|
A.
We need proof of age. For participants 16 and over, their
drivers license is fine. For those under 16, we need a
birth certificate.
|
|
|
Q. Why do I need a
mouth piece?
|
|
A.
This is for the player’s protection. We have seen
first hand, young people loose teeth during flag football
tournaments. Each participant will be given one
mouthpiece at registration. If that mouthpiece is
lost, the participant will have to purchase another one.
Mouthpieces will be available for sale at the tournament for
$1. If a participant is not wearing a mouthpiece, they will
not be able to play.

|
|
Q. Why do I have to
wear a wrist band?
|
|
A.
This is to ensure that if someone did not register, they
will not be playing on a team. We will check bands
with the registration sheet before each game.
|
|
|
Q. Where do I
send completed registration forms and entry fee?
|
|
A.
Please send or deliver the registration forms and entry to:
Bearcat Bowl
SBU Football Office

Make checks payable to SBU Football.

|
|
Q. Will we
still play if it rains?
|
|
A.
Of course! The only reason the games will be delayed
would be because of lightning or too much water on the
fields. If this would happen, the game time would be
shortened.
|
|
|
Q. When and how
do I check in?
|
| A. The
registration is at Meyer Wellness center. It will be
open from 7am – 9am on Saturday, May 3rd. During
registration, you will receive your wrist band along with a
Participant’s bag which will include schedules, maps,
coupons, a mouthpiece and a tee-shirt. |
