34th World Footbag Championships awarded to Montreal

We just received great news today: The 34th World Footbag Championships is gonna be in Montreal from July 27th to August 3rd 2013. Thanks to Luka Weyler-Lavallée for his relentless efforts to secure the facilities we will have a great gym to play in. The Cegep du Vieux-Montreal gyms have seen the local play for 26 years and we had over 15 tournaments in there already. Here's a video that was taken in that same gym:

Of course Pro Kicker and myself will be involved actively in the organisation of that tournament although I'll be very happy not to be THE man in charge this time (This will be the 4th time that Worlds will be in Montreal after 1996, 1998 and 2004).

I hope to see a record number of players in my hometown next summer. Start practicing harder now and good luck to all the footbag net and freestyle competitors. For more videos of Footbag net played in that same gym visit:
