OTTAWA HARDCORE SPORTS LEAGUE 2K?

The hardcore sports league has been defunct for a few years. If anyone is interested in starting it up again, all it takes are one or two committed individuals who can maintain an email/phone list, make periodic posts on punkottawa.com and procure the necessary balls/accessories.
If you are interested email ohsl AT punkottawa DOT com!

Choose your weapon: soccer, basketball, football, road hockey, baseball or dodgeball... Because hardcore is more than music - it's also SPORTS!

Here's the deal:

1. The sports league is gonna bring together the strong-weak, nerd-jock, gay-straight, edge-sellout, fat-skinny, tall-midget, male-female elements of ottawa's hardcore punk rock scene.
2. Making all you apathetic and lazy dildos do something with your life, or at least your Sunday afternoons. (i.e. realize that you suck at sports.)
3. It'll make your summer a lot more fun and mabye you can meet some of those kids you see at every show and akwardly smile at.
4. It'll unite the hardcore/punk scene in Ottawa by making everybody become a competitive jerk.
5. Games will be on every Sunday, between 3-6pm, starting AS SOON AS POSSIBLE (check punkottawa.com message board general section for current info). So clear your Sunday afternoons, and tell your boss to eat shit.

Rules:

1. All rules to the game being played apply, so if you are some tough attitude carrying idiot, don't bother coming.
2. Bring your own equipment. There's nothing worse than showing up to play soccer and no one has brought a ball. The more the merrier. Oh yeah, and no cleats or rollerblades are allowed.
3. Bring your own water. And lots of it, other people will want to bum it off of you when they forget theirs.
4. Don't show up to be a spectator. Everyone will harass you to play anyway, so you might as well join in before we all fight you.
5. Don't be intimidated to show up because you don't know anyone, you'll get to know them and have fun at the same time.
6. If it is raining, games are cancelled and will continue with the next sport the following weekend. If it is one of those sketchy days where it might get nice out by 3 pm, use your judgement.

Teams:

1. Teams will be chosen once everyone gets there. You'll pick a number out of a hat, and everyone with that number will be on your team (remember kindergarten?). Each week/sport new teams will be chosen.
2. If you really really suck, don't worry, because Gnick is the worst athlete ever born, and he'll make you look good.

How to get involved:

1. SHOW UP.
2. If you have any questions/suggestions/comments please post them on the punkottawa general board, or you can e-mail ohsl AT punkottawa DOT com.
