Henderson 2011 Fall/Winter Two Hand Touch League (HTHT)


League dues are 10 dollars (this pays for everything including cash prize for winners)

There will be an open pickup game this Saturday 10/15 at White at 5:30pm where everyone is going to play then vote for captains, so if you want to be involved you have to show up
There will be two games a week (Sundays unless scheduled differently by your captain)

If your team can’t play on your scheduled time it is up to your captain to contact your opponent and schedule a different time sometime during the week

If you can’t figure it out you will receive an automatic loss if you don’t show up for your scheduled time

Trades must be agreed to by both teams and the commissioner

$5 for most touchdowns thrown

$5 for most touchdowns ran/caught

$5 for most interceptions

$5 for most sacks

$10 for MVP (voted on by every league member/ this person cant win any other bonuses)

$200 to the championship team ($40 each)

Your entry fee is your ticket to be drafted (you will not be allowed to play until you have handed over the cash)

If you miss more than 2 games for any reason your captain has the right to drop you and your money is unrecoverable

All games will be played at Thurman White Middle School on Sunday at 1 pm

This is very flexible: as long as both teams agree on a date, place, and time and contact one of the commissioners the game will count

Everyone in the draft will vote on the five best players and they will be captains

There will be a snake style draft (order will be drawn out of a hat/pick trading is allowed)

Teams will be posted on website and standings and stats will be kept online

There will be two games a week and schedule will be posted online

The top 3 teams will make the playoffs with 1 getting a bye and 2vs3 being the first round game

Tiebreaker will be head to head
