We're coming [from Pennsylvania]

Dear Sean. First, if you hit the ball and it touches any part of your inside line, albeit a centimeter of it, are you out? Second, is there any spiking rule in the men’s league that you play or are you allowed to spike it as hard as you want? Is this frowned upon in competition? Third, is blood on the serve only when the serve is unreturnable or also when the receiver plays a shot off the serve that is unreturnable. Fourth, how is a showdown actually performed?

A Message to Bridgton (and UCONN and all of Newfoundland)

This is just a friendly note to let you all know that we will be at the Four Square World Championships on Feb 28, 2009. To all the good folks in Bridgton, the great people of Portland, all of the UCONN four square team, the barbarians of the north in Newfoundland, and all the citizens of the great nations attending the championships - take a good, hard look at the fiercest competition you'll ever face. See you there.

"I am trying to write a paper..."

Dear Sean, I am trying to write a paper on promoting four square. The only problem is there is not a lot of resources out on the internet. Could you help me with some of the pro's of playing four square, so far I only have: you can make it your own game, simple instructions, not a lot of materials, any age group, and hand eye coordination? Please help me out.

Are leg shots legal?

Dear Sean, If a server serves the ball correctly and it bounces into square 2, opposite from square 4, whereupon the receiver returns the ball to the server hitting him in the knee followed by the ball hitting an inside line, is the server out?

Vote on the 2009 league shirt color

It's that time of year again. Time to vote on the color for the four square league t-shirts. We're going to get an order in shortly after our next game so we can be properly pimped out at the world championships in Maine.

The color choices are wide. Blue, teal, gray and "cranberry". Cranberry isn't read, its like a dark red but not too close to brown, FYI. Cast your vote here:

Vote on the Shirt!

Gamma Phi Beta sorority four square

Dear Sean, Hello my name is Abbi and I am a sister of Gamma Phi Beta sorority at George Mason University. In November, we are having a 4 square tourament on our campus and I was wondering if you could help me haha. Is there any way that you could send me the break down of your tournaments? This is the first time we are having such an event, and everyone is excited, but confused as to how it will actually run.
