History
of
the
East/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.
