Forecast Is For Green Skies

It’s opening day at the 6th edition of The Green Cup!  We have upwards of 60 players in net and freestyle from across the US and including 2 players from Paris and 10 from the footbag net capital of the world - Montreal, Quebec.  We have 7 world champions in footbag net and 1 guest of honor.  His name is Jean-Francois Lemieux - we call him JF - and this weekend The Chaos Footbag club honors his lifelong dedication to the sport we love.  He is a doubles world champion, a 4 time runner up in both singles and doubles at the World Championships.  He also holds many major titles.  Oh, and btw - we’re very happy to welcome his doubles partner back to the game and to The Green Cup for the first time - Benjamin Rochon.

No team has yet claimed the Green Cup twice nor defended their title.  There will not be a repeat this year and we’ll miss Florian and Patrick who took the cup last year in the most dramatic doubles final this tournament has produced thus far. 

Holders of the Green Cup years past include: 2004 - Alexis Deschenes / Brent Welch, 2005 - Chaos #3 (PT Lovern) / Chaos #4 (John Leys), 2006 - Emmanuel Bouchard / Chaos #8 (Patrick Schrickel), 2007 - Chaos #4 (John Leys) / Chaos #5 (Eric Wulff)

Holders Of The Green Cup present: Chaos #8 (Patrick Schrickel) / Florian Goetze.

It’s not all about competition though.  WTF - yes it is .  I’ll be back throughout the weekend with updates.  Happy Green Cup!!

Chaos love and best wishes to Patrick, Leah, and family on the passing of Leah’s father this week!  We’ll miss the Schrick Dog and his posse of supporters this weekend.
