    Nice pictures! I was there on Saturday and I must commend all involved in the Kappa Football Classic group for putting on a first class, well organized event! Without exaggeration there had to have been 1,000+ kids playing this weekend. I couldn’t believe how much the Girls Football division has grown and progressed in the last few years! Hats off as well to all the refs, the teams, the coaches, and the players for giving up their time each week to do something positive for our kids!

    It was great to see sponsorship fro XL , Ren Re and a few other larger reinsurance at a youth event! However, I was surprised that so few of the local youth teams had local sponsors! I only noticed Link Bermuda, Lindos and Redlaser. These kids need our help!

    Bermuda, next year we all need to encourage our employers to come out to the Kappa Classic or games in general and see how well organized and positive youth football has become. Encourage your employers (if possible) to sponsor these teams so they can grow. One of the parents was telling me that their child’s team (I forget which one) made a tutor available before practice so kids could get help with homework.

    My apologies, I just remembered after looking at these pictures that Bermuda Healthcare Services also sponsored a team.

      No problem on our end, no, it may be something on yours? If you’re on a device that doesn’t show flash [iPad] the slideshow won’t show. It’s 1,100 odd photos, so we used a slideshow to fit them all in…
