Thursday Matchs at TCU Indoor and Friday/Saturday Schedules Adjusted

We have done everything we can to adjust the schedules to where we play games during the middle of the day – NO EARLY GAMES BEFORE 12 and NO LATE GAMES AFTER 5. So the sun will be out and with the forecast saying no wind it should be OK on Friday with the adjusted game times. Some teams may play just 3 games but we will attempt to give the teams that request 4 games, that 4th game. Priority will be given to the out of town teams on the 4th game.

We are excited about the event and we hope everyone else is as well.

I will be sending out the revised schedule for Friday and Saturday later tonight and the website will reflect those changes as well.

The following schools will not be in the event…
Marcus
Flower Mound
The Colony

All other schools will play Thursday games indoor at TCU. So that schedule is set in stone that is online.

The following schools cannot play on Friday but will play games on Saturday…
Keller
Keller Central
Carroll

THURSDAY SCHEDULE MOVING INDOOR - TCU's Sam Baugh Indoor Football Facility

Games will be 50 minutes long (25 min halves) and will be played on the hour starting at 8am and the last game starting at 11pm as we need to get 16 games played in one location. The games will not count toward showcase standings – only games 2,3, and 4 will count toward final standings. FRIDAY and SATURDAY games will be played as scheduled but there still can be adjustments to those 2 days.

We have done everything we can at this point and just want to give your teams and your players an opportunity to play in front of the college coaches.

COLD WEATHER COMING

For the 7th year out of 8 the weather for the Showcase will be Sunny and Dry. We will not however benefit from normal Texas heat because it will be extremely cold on Thursday and will gradually get better as the weekend approaches. Please make sure your players pack appropriately.
