Registration, Groups, and Waitlist Details

Registration is first come first served. If you pay by check you will not be added to the league until we receive your check- this applies to waitlist priority and the ability to join groups, as well as actually being assigned to a team.

You sign up once for every division that you want to play, but the registration system remembers most of your information, so signing up for each division is pretty fast. If the limit on any night is reached, subsequent registrants will automatically be placed on the waitlist, without notification (we will probably email you at some point to let you know, and hopefully in the future this will be automated). From the waitlist you can ask for a refund at any time. Otherwise you'll get added when a space opens up, and we'll email you to let you know your'e in. You can also check the webpage to see your status and position on the waitlist. If you sign up for the league late, or get in off the waitlist late, part of your registration fee will be refunded so that you only pay for the games you play. (But if you miss games once we tell you you're on a team, you don't get refunded.) You can't join groups if you're on the waitlist or signing up late.

Groups

You sign up alone, but then once you're in you can join with up to 3 others to form groups of 4 maximum. You join groups by going to the list of players page once you're signed up. There is no longer a need to sign up all at once together, and you can change your groups as often as you like, until the group change deadline.

Details About Playing On Any Night

As with all Ultimate games, the emphasis in this league will be on high spirit, great exercise and fun for both newcomers and experienced players. Play hard, but play nice. And remember, violence, be it physical or verbal, is never acceptable, and will get you suspended, so keep your head about you.

• Bring light/dark shirts to delineate teams, and water, and cleats.
• Do not damage the fields. If we do, we will be fined heavily and not allowed to play again. If you're causing more than the normal wear and tear because the fields are wet, you have to stop. With regards to litter, leave the fields in better condition than you found them. Report serious damage. The better care we take of the fields, the more we'll get to use them.  Please note: The new fields at Fuller and Olson fall under the city weather cancellation policy, implemented to prevent damage to the fields when they are too wet to play on.  Some games may be cancelled by the city, in which case we will notify you by e-mail as far in advance as possible.  If this occurs we will have one week of makeup games at the end of the season at the same time/location.
• Rules for games: Play by the 11th edition rules with the three modifications below. For the full rules, see http://www.upa.org/ ultimate/rules/rules.html. Competitive night (summer only) plays without these modifications.

Notes about Captaining

Captains are highly appreciated, and play for a discount. Just put a 10 (or a 7-9 typically) in the "How Much I'd Like to Be a Captain." box. As we form teams we'll choose captains based on experience, team balance, etc. If you're chosen, you'll have to come to the captains meeting, send emails to your teams to get them psyched about the games, and do the usual captain job of helping new players and keeping the spirit on your team high.  You don't have to be the best player on the team, but you do have to have spirit and energy! Captains make this league work, so if you've been playing for a few seasons, think about joining the ranks of the captains. :-)

Captain Compensation:

Upon fulfilling their duties, at season's end Spring, Summer and Fall League captains receive their choice of a registration refund for that season, five league discs, or a captain jersey.

Late Fall and Winter captains receive their choice of a $25 discount for their registration, five league discs or a captain jersey.

The 2010 Spring League Captain's Meeting will be at Dave Morris' house on Monday, March 29 at 7 pm, while the player/team review meeting will be at 9 pm at the same day and location.
