The Andrew McGavin Cup, with the Mogens Brodsgaard Game MVP:
An old competition that we have held here on the Island since 1933.
In the early years, it was used as a fund to help out injured players.
Fast forward to 2000 and on – it is used as an early year tournament to get some extra work in and make final decisions for teams.
It is open to all teams except the top 4 of Division 1. Some opportunity for lower divisional teams to test their skills vs a higher caliber team can get interesting too.
To pay tribute to our fallen members, this year we have decided to do that by having the Final on Remembrance Day, get the bbq out, invite families and communities, break bread, and maybe tilt a glass.
Hope to see you out this week, or the next round on Sept 26 & 27.
