History
of
the
Easr/West Challenge
________________________________________
In January 2009, the Central Florida Highland
Games
hosted the 1st East/West Challenge. Expanding on the popularity of the
SSAAA's other signature games, the East vs. West Challenge was created
in order to introduce another team game to the SSAAA. Unlike the North
vs. South which typically pulls throwers from states that existed
during the Cival War, the East vs. West allows the game to draw
throwers from the entire USA.
The game format is as follows:
1. The association choses a thrower to be team captain for
the West Team, and another to be captain of the East Team.
2. Each captain selects enough throwers from his part of the
country to fill the team roster. Typically 5 to 6 throwers per team are
chosen. The map above is used at the guideline for team selection.
3. All team members must be amateur throwers.
4. The teams compete at the chosen venue. Points are added up
to determine not only the winning team, but also individual placement.
