Support Ultimate - Come Watch the Texas Live Logic Shootout!

Friday, May 25th, 2007

Austin ultimate players,

Come out and support local ultimate at the Live Logic Texas Shootout on June
1-3. The tournament will be going on all weekend at the UT IM fields, but
the festivities get started on Friday night, June 1 with two showcase games
at House Park Stadium. The first game will be a high school all star game
at 6:30 PM. Come dream about how good you would have been if you had played
ultimate in high school. After the high school game, the battle of Texas is
on between Austin’s own Doublewide and Grit from Dallas. For more
information about Friday’s showcase, check out the attached flyer. For more
information about the tournament, check out the website
(http://www.livelogic.net/txshootout/). If you have friends or coworkers who might be
interested, invite them to come along. I hope to see you there!

Summer League Registration is UP!

Tuesday, May 8th, 2007

Hello Austin Ultimate!

Registration for the 2007 Austin Ultimate Summer League is now open! Please
visit http://www.austinultimate.org/sl2007/signup/ to register.

As I first announced, the format for weekly play will be the same as last
year, with one set of teams playing on Monday/Wednesday evenings and the
other on Tuesday/Thursday evenings at the beautiful UT Intramural Fields at
51st and Guadalupe. There will be two games each night beginning at 6:30
and ending at 10:00. Weekly play will begin on Monday, June 4 and end on
Thursday, June 28. There will be a tournament all day on Saturday, June 30
and a party that night. The registration fee will be $25 for the entire
league. As always, everyone will get a sweet new disc. All proceeds
benefit the UT Men and Women ultimate teams.

The registration fee is payable through PayPal. Everyone must pay with
PayPal. I know some people have an unwarranted aversion to PayPal, but
believe me it is the fastest, easiest, safest way to pay. You don’t even
need an account or anything – just pay with your credit card.

Also, when registering you may request to be on the same team as ONE other
friend. Enter this person’s name at the bottom of the signup page. This
will only work if your friend also requests to be on your team and enters
your name at the bottom of their signup page. Don’t try to get fancy by
doing something like person A requests person B who requests person C who
requests person A. This will only leave you sad and lonely on a team
without your friends. Please, only ONE friend request.

If you would like to be a team captain and feel you are qualified, please
check the box at the bottom of the signup page to volunteer. Please know
that volunteering does not automatically mean you will be a captain, as
captain appointments will depend on how many people volunteer.

Registration will be open for 2 weeks, but sign up today! Spread the word
and tell all your friends and family about Summer League.
