Credit Card Payments added this year

We have added the convenience of paying for the tournament on-line using PayPal and your credit/debit card. This is added for those folks who like this type of transaction. It comes in handy especially at deadline time. I want to clarify that we don't make any money on this feature, it is merely a processing fee that PayPal charges us. You can avoid processing fee by mailing a check to the YYSA office which is listed on the YYSA website at www.yysa.org.

SURVIVOR SUNDAY

Survivor Sunday is a special feature that this tournament offers that no other tournament has. All teams, U-11 and above, play three games on Saturday. Points are tallied and each team in the age bracket is awarded a seed number at the end of the day. Sunday play is based on seeding where play is similar to the NCAA basketball tournament. All teams play on Sunday. Survivor Sunday simply means if you win, you play again. If you lose, your tournament play ends. Before each game, we play the Survivor theme song then sound the buzzer and drop the ball. Of course, the higher the seed, the easier the path. Survivor Sunday is designed to play every other half hour which depending on the size of the bracket, you could end up playing an additional four games on Sunday. If a game ends in a tie on Survivor Sunday, both teams go to Tribal Council where a shootout Yak Attack style occurs; a shootout against my hay bale goalie.

CODE FOUR UNIFORM CONTEST

Once again, Code Four Athletic Apparel Company is sponsoring a uniform contest. This event is one of the trademarks of the Yak Attack. Teams are encouraged to make their own uniforms for this event and many teams come to the event with some awesome looking and funny looking uniforms. We parade all the teams across the main stage and introduce each team to the crowd. Uniforms have to in good taste and three winners are awarded; Boys, Girls, and Grand Champion. Each winning team wins a $200.00 gift certificate from Code Four Athletic Apparel Co. Contest starts at 12:45 on Saturday.

YAK ATTACK ~~FOOD~~ SOUP DRIVE

Another unique feature of the Yak Attack is our Northwest Harvest Food Drive. In years past we have had a food drive where teams bring in food and win a ride a limousine. The past two years we have seen food donations plummet which might be caused by the economy, we don't know. This year we will be doing it a little different. We are asking each participant to bring 1 can of soup to the tournament. This has the potential of gathering 1800 cans of soup which the food bank would be gratefull.
