Loss of a Champion
John Moran Our hearts and prayers go out to the community of Greenwood, Indiana and the Center Grove football program for the sudden death of Head Coach John Moran this past Tuesday.  Last year was the first time that Coach Moran and his Center Grove Trojans visited the Trojan Horse, but anyone that had the privledge to watch them play, knew instantly that John was a true teacher of the game.  His passion for the sport and young athletes was illustrated by the high caliber of class that his team displayed on and off the football field.  Even though his time with the Trojan Horse was brief, his presence will be greatly missed. 
Bracket Limited to 27        
27
Each year the Trojan Horse has grown in size, however it appears this year we will shoot for the same number of teams we had last year...27.  As you can see we already have 20 teams expressing interest (12 of which already locked in and paid), so that potentially only leaves seven open spots for this year's event.  There still will be two divisions of Single A for the smaller programs and Double A for the larger programs.        
The Lil' Blue Devils First Visit       
Springfield Lil' Blue Devils
2011 will mark the first entry of the Springfield Lil' Blue Devils from Holland, Ohio.  The Devils are a young program and are only on their 4th season of play.  They are a travel team that is part of the Northwest Ohio Youth Football League (NOYFL).  We welcome the Devils and eager to how they perform in this year's event.   
Construction Concern          
Road Closed
They Anyone that has been to Troy knows the Great Miami River runs directly through the town with two bridges connecting the north and the south - the Adams Street Bridge and the Market Street Bridge.  However, for this year's Tournament there will only be ONE as the Adams Street Bridge is currently being replaced.  Thus a new Tournament Map will be posted in there near future clearly indicating the change in this year's traffic.  Any/all of the Tournament fields are on the North side of town, however many of the hotels, restaurants, and access to I75 are from the south side; so this year's Tournament Map will be of particular importance do to the construction.  Stay turned for an announcement of when that new Tournament Map is online.    
Special Rates on Hotel Rooms   
Alliance Tour and Travel
Hotels continue to fill and they will only become more scarce and expensive as the Tournament date draws closer.  This year we are proud to announce Alliance Tour & Travel as "The Official Travel Partner for The Trojan Horse".  Alliance will be your personal assistant for all your Hotel Reservations and will be offering special Group Rates for anyone that books hotel rooms Tournament weekend.  Please note, special group rates may NOT be available by calling any of the local hotels direct. 

As Tournament time continues to get closer, it is highly recommended you book your rooms early before the local hotels begin to fill.
