PRINCE GEORGE FC VS EDMONTON DRILLERS

@ CN CENTRE APRIL 5 AND 6, 2008

WE HAVE ONLY ONE CHANCE TO PROVE THAT PRINCE GEORGE IS COMMITTED TO SUPPORTING A SEMI-PROFESSIONAL INDOOR SOCCER TEAM

THE GOAL OF THE INDOOR SOCCER SHOWCASE CHALLENGE IS TO FILL THE SEATS AT THE CN CENTRE AND HAVE THE SUPPORT OF THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY. IF SUCCESSFUL, PRINCE GEORGE WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE THE FIRST TEAM IN BC TO JOIN THE CANADIAN MAJOR INDOOR SOCCER LEAGUE (CMISL).

THE CMISL IS A NEW LEAGUE WITH SEMI-PROFESSIONAL AND PROFESSIONAL PLAYERS FEATURING TEAMS FROM EDMONTON, CALGARY, SASKATOON, AND WINNIPEG. THE PRESIDENT OF THE LEAGUE MEL KOWALCHUCK, WAS CONVINCED TO COME TO PRINCE GEORGE BY SIPHO SIBIYA (A FORMER PROFESSIONAL INDOOR SOCCER PLAYER AND NOW THE HEAD TECHNICAL COACH OF PGYSA). MEL LOVED THE CITY AND CONVINCED THE LEAGUE THAT PG SHOULD BE GIVEN A CHANCE TO PROVE THEIR COMMITMENT.

THE CN CENTRE WILL BE TRANSFORMED INTO A TURF SOCCER PITCH. THE GAME IS HOCKEY-STYLE WITH 6 ASIDE AND SUBSTITUTION ON THE FLY. IT IS FAST AND EXCITING WITH A UNIQUE SCORING SYSTEM FEATURING A 3-POINT AND 1-POINT GOAL. MUSIC PUMPS UP THE ATMOSPHERE WHILE END-TO-END ACTION ENTERTAINS THE CROWD.
