EXT. DIRT BIKE TRACK
MALE V.O., a Maximum Exposure host type
When you hear the name Extreme Toronto Sports Club you might think of this…
A biker does a death-defying flip in the air.
MALE V.O.(CONT’D)
Or if you hear XTSC you might think of this…
EXT. MUDDY FIELD at an MXC-style gameshow
A contestant wearing a helmet runs out into the mud holding a bucket and trying to catch a ball dropping out of the sky. They miss the ball and faceplant in the mud.
MALE V.O.
Hilarious. At XTSC our play isn’t extreme, but some might say our philosophy is. We believe that playing a fun and fair game in a convenient location without breaking the bank isn’t too much to ask. We don’t think it’s extreme for a league to provide referees at no extra cost. Safety is important. This isn’t Aussie rules. Just good…
EXT. VARIOUS PLAYER CLOSE-UPS in XTSC league games.
A male keeper makes a diving save in the mud.
MALE V.O.(CONT’D)
Clean...
A female volleyball player makes a dig, sand flies everywhere.
MALE V.O.(CONT’D)
Fun.
A baseball player slides to first, in a cloud of dust.
MALE V.O.
We don’t think it’s extreme that the league organizing the games do the setup for those games. What else would you be paying us for? You’ve got enough to do, like text Chris every single week what time the game is even though it’s posted on the website. Every. Single. Week.
EXT. SOCCER FIELD, a male player, CHRIS has the ball.
MALE V.O.
(Disappointed)C’mon Chris!
CHRIS, distracted by the V.O. calling him out, gets checked.
CHRIS
(TO CAMERA, as if he’s so innocent.) What?
MALE V.O
We don’t think it’s extreme to play all your games at the same field. It’s soccer, not a scavenger hunt. And it’s not math.
INT. OFFICE
JOHNNY is writing a math problem on a whiteboard and urgently trying to solve it.
MALE V.O.(CONT’D)
(Urgently dictating the math problem) If Johnny has to travel across the city to a field other than the one he signed up for, during rush hour what time will Johnny have to leave work to make a 6 o'clock game? (Directly to JOHNNY)Don’t bother “Johnny”, you’re not going to make it!
JOHNNY, defeated, tosses his marker.
MALE V.O.
You only play at the field that’s most convenient for your team. Period! Above all, we’re not okay with offering less for more just because “everybody else is doing it”. We think you deserve more. More support, more fairness, and more downtown fields which means more of this…
EXT. FIELD A co-ed XTSC team scoring and cheering.
MALE V.O.(CONT’D)
And more of this…
INT. BAR. A co-ed XTSC team cheersing in celebration. PAN OUT from glasses to smiling faces.
MALE V.O.
So why do we call ourselves extreme?
EXT. FIELD
FEMALE PLAYER stops mid-game, before running back to it.
FEMALE PLAYER
(TO CAMERA, Gently whispered, kindly, but with a cheeky smile) It’s irony, get it?
MALE V.O.
Xtreme Toronto Sports Club. The club where you get what you pay for and you don’t get screwed. Now that’s Extreme!
