BUBBA Bowl is a direct spiritual descendent of The Bloody Saturday Tournament of 2011; and a dirty little cousin of Gert Bowl.

Bristol

(see Rule Pack on link above for maps)

The cost for the Saturday will be £6 (does not include lunch anymore) to be paid directly on the day (by prior arrangement) or to me via PayPal (details by PM). On PayPal please use Gift or Personal; and leave your name, contact number and if already registered your NAF name and/or number.

This intrigues me... What's the thinking behind this?

Pearlies used to do random skills - could be fun, could suck. ;)

I think I'm out, as I'm currently working that weekend - will see what I can do.

Oops :oops: that's from an earlier draft. Skills were allocated randomly for 'Bloody Saturday' (if you can remember back that far). For this one you will be able to choose the three that gets the skills.

Would the lovely Ms Tempest also be interested?

When looking at the (increasingly congested) tournament calander we thought it best to split the difference between ARBBL and Crumb. Hopefully we won't steal anyones thunder!

I was going to e-mail you, Hawca, Darkson, Glow, Hudson, Al and Robin the rules pack tomorrow.

What is meant by 'clean sheet'? Should I bring soap?

a clean sheet
(British) if a football team or a goalkeeper (= the player who stands in the goal) has a clean sheet, they do not allow the other team to score any goals United kept a clean sheet in an away match for the first time this season

or from Wikipedia...

In team sports, a shutout (a clean sheet in association football) is a game in which one team prevents the opposing team from scoring. While possible in most major sports, they are highly improbable in some sports, such as basketball.[1]

Shutouts are usually seen as a result of effective defensive play even though a weak opposing offense may be as much to blame. Some sports credit individual players, particularly goalkeepers and starting pitchers, with shutouts and keep track of them as statistics; others do not.



For the purposes of BUBBA Bowl a 'Clean Sheet' will be preventing you opponent from scoring a TD

No soap will be involved unles is is to rub your dirty mind/mouth :D
