UPDATED WITH NEW FORMS AND DETAILS

Arsenal Canada is pleased to offer the Arsenal Canada Experience. This trip is what we hope you think is a complete football experience. We are finalizing the stadium tours and times. The reserve fixture may change, depending on the change we may have a match against the local Arsenal supporters club or shift around. Newcastle have also not confirmed if the game is being held at St. James’ Park or Whitley Park.

Deposits will be due when Air Canada requires group flights to be booked, or when ticket requests need to be placed with Arsenal, whichever comes first.

We are also looking into Commemorative shirts for the trip. They will be kits in the same style of Arsenal with similar colours, but with your name, number and Arsenal Canada on the kits (we need kits for the 1-2 matches we will play while over there). Please send me your preferred number and size (send me your second choice number too). If two people have the same number, preference will be given to the person who reigstered for the trip first.

Have a look at the information and itinerary. We look forward to seeing you in London.

cheers,
Arsenal Canada

Hello Arsenal Canada;
UEFA Champions League just opened up.
Scoring for the Arsenal Canada league will commence in Gameweek 2 (September 27).
Please make sure your team is entered on the website by that date so that you do not fall behind.

The last date to be eligible for first half and overall prizing is October 9. Please make sure your membership dues are paid today.

Dues paid after October 9 are eligible for second half prizing (the start of the elimination rounds).

Paid Members, to get the group access code, please email Morgan, god_moe@hotmail.com

Good luck and UTA!

Arsenal have completed the signing of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain from Southampton, read the annoucement over at arsenal.com

Fantasy Games are here and nearly all up and running.
This years games are:
Barclay’s Fantasy Premier League, http://fantasy.premierleague.com
Talksport I Know The Score, http://predictor.talksport.co.uk/
UEFA Fantasy Champions League, http://en.uclfantasy.uefa.com/
Arsenal Canada Season Long Multi-Question Contest.

Competitions start in week 1 with scoring, but if you miss entering your team or picks by a week, have no fear there is still lots to play for.

Barclay’s FPL starts in week 1. There will be a first half and second half prize in addition to a home or away kit for the overall winner. If you have a team created already, we will supply you the code to join the group when you pay your membership dues. To be eligible for the first half or overall prize you must have your dues paid in full to Morgan Rubes by October 9.

Talksport I Know The Score starts in week 1. There will be a first half and second half prize in addition to a home or away kit for the overall winner. Again, we will supply the code once you are paid and the same date of October 9 applies.

UEFA Fantasy CL starts on group match day 1. You must be paid in full by October 9 to be eligible for prizes. Prizes are awarded to the overall winner, to the winner of the group stage, and the winner of the elimination rounds.

The season long multi question contest starts as soon as the questions are posted (probably in a week). You post your responses on the forum and then they get tabulated in an excel file for the exec to track. Entries in this are due by November 1, often the time that the first manager gets sacked.

We will also have a couple of bonus prizes. The highest single gameweek score in Barclays FPL, Talksport IKS, and UEFA Fantasy CL will each win a prize.

Please note that if you register after October 9, you are still eligible for second half prizing and for the highest gameweek prize.

If you have already paid, and did not yet receive an email with the codes, please email Morgan at morgan@arsenalcanada.ca or god_moe@hotmail.com
If an individual gets a code without paying, they will be removed from the group table.

cheers,
Your 2011-12 Arsenal Canada Exec
