National Competitions and the PRECON/RYC

The Precon/RYC is an annual event executed on a REGIONAL scale with a unifying theme and sessions that lead to the National CFC Youth Conference. With this concept, the competitions at PRECON/RYC should also be executed in a way that somehow leads to the national conference.

To fulfill this, the competitions for PRECON/RYC will be considered as “Tournament”, whereas the winners will advance, representing their region at the Conference, which will be considered as the “Championships”. A 50% attendance from each winning team of each Precon must compete in the National Conference. This automatically secures a number of participants that will attend from each delegation. The competitions will then become one of the many reasons that a youth would attend, which is ideal as competitions are still a part of the National Conference.

COMPETITION HEADS

Roles and Responsibilities

Overall Competitions Heads will take charge of the following:

1. Receive and follow-up on all rosters from competitors, and all requirements. 2. Submit a list of confirmed teams to the Committee Heads, who will announce official competing teams.

Should be any concerns or problems, CA will bring it to the attention of the Competition Heads. 3. Organize on-site verification of all rosters and actual competitions.

Mechanics: The expansion of this committee varies, depending on the Precon/RYC. Here are some suggestions for each event:

* All Committee and Sub-Committee Heads are responsible for overseeing their events and responsibilities related to these events throughout the duration of Precon/RYC.

*The whole Competition Committee is also responsible for the making of the awards

The breakdown of the Competition committees is as

Referees Sport Competitions Committee

Competition Heads are responsible for monitoring the progress and development of all competitions as well as monitoring the implementation of the rules of the guidelines within the competitions. They are the liaison between the Sub-Committees and the main Committees of the Precon/RYC.

Sports, Creatives, and Fun Competitions Committee Heads take direction passed on to them from the PFO in relation to the competitions through the Competition Heads. They are in charge of making and modifying new and obligatory competitions. They are also responsible for scouting out their individual service teams for their specific competitions.

ORIGINAL VIDEO: THE NEW EVANGELIZATION DESCRIPTION Film has a unique and powerful way of capturing life and conveying a message. This year we are challenging you to use your God-given talents to express the New Evangelization! “Evangelization will always contain as the foundation, center and, at the same time, the summit of its dynamism-- a clear proclamation that, in Jesus Christ salvation is offered to all men, as a gift of God's grace and mercy…The new evangelization is not a matter of merely passing on doctrine but rather of a personal and profound meeting with the Savior.” – Blessed John Paul II

Create an original video. The video can be your personal interpretation of making the New Evangelization come to life, whether it’s evangelizing your family, your friends, strangers who know nothing about the faith, and even those who were baptized but have walked away from the Church. These original videos will be used as a way to evangelize – to show them on Facebook, at camps, on tumblr. It’s a way to showcase our faith!

RULES & REGULATIONS » The Original Video may be a narrative, an awareness video, or a commercial. » The Original Video can be as short as 1 minute but it must be under 3 minutes and 15 seconds. » No one over 21 years of age is allowed to help with any filming, editing, or production. » There is no age limit for the persons in the film (e.g. grandparents, parents, etc.). » REMINDER: Before filming inside a Church, ask permission from the parish or priest. Always be

respectful and reverent inside a Church – He is truly present in the Blessed Sacrament.

ENTRY & SUBMISSION DETAILS » Open competition: There is NO entry limit per region. Only 1 (one) entry per person. » All entries should be showcased at the regional Precon/RYC. » TO SUBMIT FOR CONFERENCE: Please upload the video to YouTube or Vimeo first, then submit via

private link (YouTube or Vimeo) to [email protected] by Friday, JULY 1st, 11:59pm. Please label the Email Subject with “Original Video 2016: [INSERT REGION & NAME]”
