General Information
 
The Festival will be held in conjunction with the NY West Coaches Workshop at TSE on November 15, 2008. This special Festival is named in memory of the late Doug May - a long time NY West area coach for travel teams, ODP, high schools and colleges, and a 2005 NYW Hall of Fame inductee. There will be separate play for boys and girls teams. Coed teams will play in the boys division. There is a limit to the number of teams that can participate, so entries will be accepted on a "first come - first served" basis. Each team will play at least 3 matches to small goals with no goalkeepers. The maximum roster size is 5. Each team’s players must be properly registered/insured through the NYW RosterPro registration program and accompanied by a registered/insured adult. There is no entry fee. All players will receive a participation award. Plan now to get your teams lined up for this fun event. Entries will be accepted on a “first come - first served” basis and must be submitted on an official NYW roster by selecting the Doug May 3 v 3 league and then sending the official roster page by E-mail to Sandy Ostebo. (If you need help with this, please contact Sandy Ostebo at sandyostebonyw@stny.rr.com or at 607-368-8456).
