In crowning the ScrumMasters of Bay Street. corporate teams of four (three individuals competing and one alternate,) participants will contend for the strongest overall push against a scrum machine. A scrum machine, similar to a football blocking sled, will measure the amount of force generated as three competitors drive into it.

Scrum in the Squarewill commence at 11:30AM and run until 1:30PM. Scrum in the Square will be a great way raise awareness of the upcoming match against the US and also to raise money for an important charity.
