MDSSC - Light Contact League


I am going to try and introduce you to some of these leagues one at a time. Today it will be MDSSC; a light contact men's 8-on-8 league. MDSSC is played in Hunt Valley, MD. When I started playing in this league seven years ago there were six teams. Most of the other teams knew someone on the other team.. It was a very small private two-hand touch co-ed league. After one season, if I remember correctly, we turned to Triple Threat Flags and threw in a Winter Men's season (Played December-March). The inaugural Winter Men's season couldn't have started out better. We had a nice 6-10 inches of snow for the first couple of games. Now with four seasons (Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall) running...we have anywhere from 28-36 teams playing in three divisions. This league has grown by leaps and bounds and hopefully will continue to do so.

The summer season just kicked off on the 6th of this month. For my team, No Response, it was a tough 2-point loss (37-35), but overall a great day to kick things off. It is an 8-week season so there is a long way to go. Some early, but regular favorites, are the Victors, Revolution and Mayhem. These teams have been in the league for quite awhile. They have their strategies down so well, they might even tell you what the play is going to be run and dare you to stop it. Again, it is early and I will try to keep everything up to date and unbiased throughout the season.

That's all for now...#32

P.S. If you like the jerseys of the recent Spring Champs, The Victors, as shown on the MDSSC home page, or of the team they played, Revolution (in green), shoot me an email and I can give you more information about AGameTeam.
