AZAA
0-10 - Divide into 8 teams and give each team a different color bandanna. Introduce program.
Welcome to AZAA at IC 2010. This year, we wanted to give you an AZAA experience to bring back to your home region. We realize because of the current economic climate that some areas are unable to have AZAA events. This year, we will be playing sports that involve paper, something that is cheap and that can be easily replicated in your home region. All of these creative sports will uphold the highest values of AZA. We hope you enjoy.

SPEECH - END
Congratulations on your successful completion of the International AZAA “Paper Sports” Tournament! We saw that each and every one of you displayed your athletic prowess to the best of your ability, and we feel confident in saying that this, 2010 International AZA body, is the most athletic of all time. We hope you enjoyed your experience here, but while this was, on the surface, a purely sports program, the depth of this tournament’s values is much greater. While you may have not realized, the AZAA you just experienced relates directly to the cardinal principals that are the founding tenets of our organization. You have exhibited Conduct by working well and being sportsman-like, not only with your own teammates, but members of the other teams as week. If you exhibited poor-sportsmanship, your team was docked points, which will be counted to determine our overall winner. Good-sportsmanship fosters cooperation, an essential part of AZA fraternal understanding, between players. By being active, you have exhibited purity. Purity of the body by becoming more fit, purity of the mind by thinking creatively and constructively, and purity of the soul by genuinely enjoying your experience. By cooperating with the rules of each event, you have exhibited fraternity, because many of the sports require teamwork to succeed. In the sports played here today, many of you had to rely on your teammates to succeed. It is this selfless trust, this dependence on others without precondition, that defines many aspects of the Aleph Zadik Aleph as a whole. We were very impressed that you were all so eager to depend on each other’s support, and we hope you take that value back to your different regions.
Once again, congratulations to all of you! Now, on to the announcement of the winners and the award ceremony!
