Central Private to host summer all-star game
Here is information for the first annual Louisiana small private parochial schools football game.
This game will consist of graduated seniors from 2013 from the LHSAA, the MAIS, and the ACEL schools. The game will be played on Saturday June 1, 2013 at Central Private School in Central, La.
It will be a north versus south format. If you make Alexandria the center point then every school north of there will play for the north and any school south of there will play for the south.
The south will practice at Silliman Institute in Clinton, La. They will be coached by TJ Davis of Silliman. The north will practice at a site the second I confirm a coach. If you are interested in coaching the north just let me know, there will be a small stipend for doing it.
What I need from each of you is the name, mailing address, and phone number for 2 players or 3 if you have a kicker, that you would like to play in the game. You will say the position that they will play and I will let the coaches know the positions.
The game will be four quarters of 15 minutes each. Each player will be guaranteed 1 quarter at his position, any time that side of the ball is on the field during the game he will be in it. We are only going to have 45 on each team, 22 offensive, 22 defensive and 1 kicker. The kids will practice 5 days of 2 a days for a total of 10 practices before the game. I am contacting all the colleges in Louisiana to tell the coaches about the game so they will come and watch.
There will be an all-star banquet with a guest speaker on the day of the game. Tickets will be available for this later. The players do not pay for the banquet. It will cost the players $90.00 to play but we do not want them or their parents paying for it. We want them to get a sponsor for the game program. They get their jersey, t-shirt, team photo, and banquet ticket for the money. We will also be handing out four $250 scholarships to the college of their choice, 2 for the north and 2 for the south..
The response for this game has been great. Over 60 teams have asked for information. If you have any questions you can call me at 318-453-0292 or email at lumleyl42@yahoo.com.
See you at the game.
