KICKOFF- September 12!

We look forward to Kickoff every year, and we know you love coming together with us to celebrate the start of a new season. While we can't have everyone under the same roof this year, we are planning a Kickoff event that will provide teams with valuable information, workshops, and the opportunity to see the field in person while still maintaining social-distancing requirements. The key elements of this year's Kickoff will be: 

• Pre-recorded workshops provided by our Planning Committee and teams
• Live Q & A sessions with the Partners, Head Referees, Lead Judge Advisors, and FTAs via video chat
• AND...4 statewide locations for teams to come and see the new field in person! Teams will also each receive one game element for the new season, courtesy of the CocoNuts! 

Whether your team can gather together in person, or has to be together while apart, Kickoff will be an exciting learning experience for all! Stay tuned for the schedule, the list of workshops, locations to see the field, and how to sign up for your field-viewing time slot.
