Does your school play an alumni game? Faculty game?

 

I know Montgomery Co. had a big alumni event last year on Thanksgiving weekend. It was well attended and the team made some $$$

 

I don't think an alumni game counts as an official scrimmage or contest, but I'm not positive about that.

If it is against the school team it would have to be considered a scrimmage, if the way that rule was explained to me was correct.

I believe it does count as an scrimmage and that it why most schools does not do it. I think even if the girls varsity plays against the freshman boys it counts as a scrimmage.

If you can run an alumni day and have odd years play the even years in boys and girls or something to that effect you can make a lot of money and not have to count it as a scrimmage because your teams would not be playing. You can do a 3 pt contest or dunk contest, etc, to also make some extra money too.

Pendleton county had their 2005 team play the 2006 squad in the summer of 2006, the game cost $7.00 to attend with attendance being poor. I think everybody involved thought it would be a large crowd when the even was planned.

The $7 price may of kept people away. Why not charge $3 to get in and sell concessions and make a lot more money that way! $7 to get in was ridiculous.
