Ella, a good friend, recently emailed me wanting to inform the community that News 8 Austin will be running a story on the local Ultimate community, specifically Riverside. The segment will run on their “Fit for Friday” portion of the show today, May 12, 2006. Click here to read the article that will coincide with the airing. Ella says that as the day goes on, hopefully they will add the video to the web site.

Summer League Committee
For anyone interested in watching some good Ultimate next week LiveLogic is sponsoring a tournament at the IM Fields between some of the best club teams in the nation. The tournament is on Saturday and Sunday, May 13 & 14, 2006 but you can come out early and watch the two showcase games. The LiveLogic website quotes:
“This year, the LiveLogic Texas Shootout will feature two opening games on Friday May 12 at House Park Stadium! At 6:30 PM we will feature the AISD High School All-Stars and at 8:00 PM we will feature Doublewide of Austin vs Dallas United in the Battle of Texas. We will have a prize giveaway for AISD students at halftime of the Battle of Texas where AISD students will have the chance to win an authentic Doublewide players jersey and other prizes. We would like to thank AISD for allowing us to use such a beautiful facility as House Park Stadium. Admission is free.”
