Answers to commonly asked questions:
Q. Do we need a full side to enter?
A. No. You can send one player or many players. This is a mixed 10s tourney so players of different clubs will be playing on the same side.
Q. Can collegiate players enter?
A. Yes. As long as they are 18yo or older, are CIPPed, and have current health insurance.
Q. Do we need to pre-register?
A. No. But we would appreciate an approximate headcount the week before the tourney. Please email allbluesmatchsec@gmail.com.
Q. Some of our backs maybe playing 7s that weekend?
A. Note that 10s is a great early season conditioning & skill sharpening game for forwards since locks & props need to play more like loosies. We are particularly interested in forwards attending.
Q. Our club is not in NorCal. Can we come too?
A. Yes! We have invited all clubs from the Pacific Northwest, California and South West.
Q. What are the views of the San Francisco Bay like from Treasure Island?
A. Stunningly beautiful. You can see Golden Gate Bridge, the Marin County mountains, and the downtown skyline. Breathtaking!
Q. Will there be a social?
A. Yes!!! Btw, a small fee will be charged for the social.
