Recruiting: 7 on 7 Championships - June 21-23
So MgoBlogers,
It's time for the national 7 on 7 tourny at IMG again. My officials association has been chosen to officiate again this year. Please let me know if there are any M recruits that I should look for. I can also send along some pictures from the event, although the media outlets are much better at this than I am, plus I am working the event.
It is no longer the Madden 7 on 7, the event now has national sponsorship through the National Football Association http://www.nfa7v7.com/
I predict 7 on7 will become very big and maybe overtake regular football at the lower levels as there is MUCH less contact and the chance of injuries is significantly less.
From the regionals, some local coverage:

If you want to go to high school for the express purpose of athletics...http://www.imgacademy.com/prep-school-program/athletics Pretty impressive place.
Too bad IMG blows at hockey. I think they are known for tennis?
It all started with Tennis many years ago.
