1ST ANNUAL YORKTON HARVEST HOCKEY DRAFT

The Yorkton Harvest will hold their 1st Annual NHL Fantasy Hockey Draft on Sunday, October 3 at 5:30pm in the Wellington West Room of the Gallagher Centre (immediately following the Yorkton Harvest 2010-11 home opener).

There will be a maximum of 25 teams (no more than 4 people per team) and cost per team is $200.  Your entry fee gets you supper and the top three finishers will get cash prizes.  First place will receive 40% of the total monies collected on the entry fees, so if we sell out at 25 teams, first prize will be $2000.

An auction is planned with autographed merchandise from various Yorkton Harvest alumni players.  Donations have already been received by NHLers Brett Carson and Nick Schultz.

Here's the skinny on the draft:

12 rounds with the first round being wide open for all teams to select any NHLer they want.  So, if 20 teams choose Sidney Crosby for a first pick, 4 choose Alexander Ovechkin, and 1 selects Henrik Sedin....then the draft will begin with round 2 and those three players will come off the board.

Your worst point producing player will not count toward your cumulative total. 

Points are decided as follows:  goals are worth 1, assists are worth 1.  Keeping it simple.

Draft format will be modified snake.  If you pick 1st in round two, you'll pick 25th in round three.  We'll redraw picks for rounds four and five, six and seven, eight and nine, ten and eleven, and twelve.

Four members of the Yorkton Harvest Executive are organizing the draft and are NOT eligible to enter a team, but may participate in the auction.

If you have any questions, email Me (Mike) at mikestackhouse@hotmail.com .  Or, call 621 2539.

To enter, a $50 deposit (non-refundable) is required.
