THE BALL PROMOTION IS NOW CLOSED

We appreciate with recent events causing the postponing of winter sport codes its been challenging to keep kids active, so the New Zealand American Football Federation want to try and help.
 
We have 100 free Junior size ENDZONE American Footballs to give away to Kiwi families (1 per family), and the balls will come with an ENDZONE guide on the basics of American football to help get kids throwing and catching the ball with their parents.

ENDZONE is the non-contact form of American Football designed to introduce kids around New Zealand to the Sport of American Football using a simplified 5 on 5 "flag football" version of the game.

The giveaway, which gets underway today, will make available via a draw, 50 mini balls (size 3 for kids <8) and 50 Junior balls (size 6 for kids 8-14) to families throughout New Zealand. 

To enter the draw, simply register (here) and you and your family will be in the draw to get one of the 100 balls sent to your home.

Entry registrations close on the 21st June, 2020, so be in quick.

Winners will be announced via email.

The grading games are now finished and the knock out rounds have started.
This is now sudden death - if a player loses a game they are out.
The winner progresses to the next round.
