Women and men are encouraged to talk about steamy love life stories.
The Circle Rules Federation is comprised of the co-creators and most avid players of the new sport, Circle Rules Football, invented in 2006 as a senior theatre project at NYU’s experimental theater wing.
The hope with Circle Rules, as it is colloquially called, was to bridge a long standing gap between sports and the arts. The game is, for all intensive purposes, a competitive sport, and since its inception, it has been played as such. However, Circle Rules Football was developed with the fundamental understanding that all sports are a type of theater, and the same artistic choices a playwright or director would face might also be faced by a sport inventor. Therefore, our knowledge of both athletics and of theater was equally instrumental to the development of Circle Rules. The game has been played on many fields across the country and internationally; it has held its ground with a broad spectrum of players and of varying degrees of competition.
Beginning with its creator, Greg Manley, the support network of Circle Rules Football has grown organically, mostly through word of mouth. In the past few years, Circle Rules Football groups have launched in many regions throughout California, Oregon, Florida, D.C., Toronto, Puerto Rico, and Prague. Here in its home base of New York, the first official season of league play began in spring 2009 and staying true to its performative roots, Circle Rules has been featured in three major festivals this summer, one for new sports, one for environmental art, and one for theatre. Now that the game has proven to hold a successful and challenging structure, peak interest, and maintain momentum it is time for the Circle Rules Federation to stand up behind the next great sport in American History.
Comprised exclusively of North Texas area police officers, firefighters, EMT and detention facility personnel, the Dallas Defenders are a registered 501(c) 3 non-profit organization, who through spirited competition of full-contact football, raise vital funds for the families of fallen police officers and firefighters. Players donate their vacation time and personal funds to offset the team's administrative costs. All proceeds from games and other promotional events are donated to charity.
The Dallas Defenders are members of the National Public Safety Football League (NPSFL) and the American Football Association. The National Public Safety Football League has 25 teams located across the United States. All NPSFL players are exclusively First Responders - not professional athletes - who donate their time, money and effort to supporting their community in their markets one game at a time. The six conference league plays under the rules and guidelines set for football by the NCAA.
The Dallas Harlequins Rugby Football Club was formed in January, 1971 and named in honor of the venerable Harlequin FC of London, England. The Club grew quickly from a handful of members to become a force in the Texas Northern Counties Rugby Football Union, the Texas Rugby Football Union and, beginning in the 1980's, the Western Rugby Football Union and the United States Rugby Union.
For over twenty years, the Harlequins have been one of the top clubs in the United States, having earned their way to the "Final Four" of the National Rugby Championships six times. In 1983, the club reached the Championship finals in Chicago and, in 1984, the Harlequins won the National Club championship in Hartford, Connecticut, defeating the Los Angeles Rugby Club by 31 points to 12. Since that time, the Harlequins have finished third in the National Championships four times: 1986 in Tampa, 1991 in San Diego, 1992 in Denver and 1995 in Austin. Of the more than 1700 rugby clubs in the United States, few have matched the Harlequins' success at the national level.
