So we were sitting around doing manly things, and it occurred to myself and the Warriors Three that there really are no Women's Team Games on the books.  Certainly, there are co-ed teams every once in a month of blue moons, but we didn't come across any in our cursory search of the Interwebz.  Let's do something about that...

In any case, the North Texas Heavies will be holding the inaugural Women's Highland Team Challenge this Fall, and we invite any and all Lady Gamers to attend.  We will contest all 9 events, as well as some challenge events. 

The loot for the winners: Will. Be. Epic. (No one has this stuff on their trophy case!!!)  Oh yeah, winning team get's their bar tab paid. 

Y'all drop me an email at duncan.mccallum01@gmail.com if interested, and we'll get entry forms and things out just as quickly as we can.

Hey Duncan great idea!!! hope lots of women can attend..
There is a team event in Kelso Washington.. and we have had a womens team for the past 3 yrs but we compete against the mens teams, so would be cool to have all female teams go head to head  .. cheers - Karyn

October 16th.  Day 1 of a 2 day Games.  Ladies First.

The response has been great y'all...we are fired up about this, and are working on getting a field together like you have never seen.  A great opportunity to come to Texas and get your Game on.

Working on the application form; will get it posted as soon as possible.

Ok, just kidding.  October 15th.  I'm stupid.  October 15th.  The Cowtown Throwdown is most likely going to be a 2-day event this year, with the Ladies on Saturday and everyone else Sunday.

My bad y'all.

wish I had enough Canadian gals to make "team maple leaf" but one of the USA teams will just have to adopt this Canuck  and put me on one of their teams. I will however make sure I have lots of Maple Suckers to bring & share with my team mates  Karyn
Ps. if you are wondering what a Canuck is slang term for Canadians or at least wild Canadians lol and also if you are a Hockey fan our BC NHL team is the Vancouver Canucks

Hey Tammy, ya forgot you could be on Team Canuck lol lol & we could get Heather MacDonald too.. they did have her listed as Canadian for Iceland   I am sure we will have a kick ass wkend of throwing no matter what team.. although I do nominate Brittney Boswell for Team Captain for "Team Pink"  although anyone on team Canuck would have to say "eh" alot    I just hope its not 120 degrees in Oct in Texas cheers Karyn

Hmmm...a chance to handicap a team of good throwers AND I can go back to Billy Bob's?! This will take some serious consideration!

Weather should be beautiful in October.  Cool, crisp evenings, and warm breezy days. 

August and September are completely different stories!

Ladies,

We are hard at work down here in the Lonestar State getting things in motion...exciting times!  We have discovered a new metal that, when formed into a LWFD and HWFD (within regulations) is almost guaranteed to make for record throws on our flat field.  Come on out and get your name in the book!

Things are moving right along, and I have come to the point where I need to ask a question:

Challenge events...what do y'all feel like doing?  Hit me with suggestions and ideas!

So far the response has been overwhelmingly positive, and I hope to see as many of y'all down there as possible.  Bring your laddies as well...Celtober will be held that Sunday, so they will get a chance to throw as well...if they survive Saturday night.

I am afraid if I painted the WFD pick and hung streamers off the caber y'all would beat me to death with them...and that's not how I want to go out in front of the news cameras...

Yee Haw.
