Thank you all

Thank you to all of the players who helped make USA Ultimate UNY Open Club Sectionals a success for 2011.

Congratulations to GOAT and Phoenix for placing first and second to represent UNY with the two initial bids.

Good luck with the Club season.

Hope to see everyone again next year.

Thanks,
Steve

Regional Bid Allocation

Preliminary bid allocations give our UNY section 2 bids to Regionals. We were one team short of being awarded 3 bids. This can change though. If all of the registered teams do not complete the final Roster Deadline and have Rosters and Tourney fees submitted the actual teams for each region will change and that may change the Regionals bid allocation. For example if UNY has all 10 teams complete the sectional tournament and if either Metro or WNE looses a team (I believe there is a decent chance that this will happen) UNY will be awarded 3 bids to Regionals.

So finish up your Rosters and get the tourney fee covered as soon as possible to prevent any last minute trouble. Less than one week left until the Final Roster Deadline.

I expect to have initial seeding and tournament formatting completed for review and comment tomorrow.

Sectionals Update: Teams / Fees / Deadlines

All,

The Final Roster Deadline for sectionals is September 6th. ALL players must be added to your roster at that time. Please do not wait to complete your roster if you know what your team roster will be. There are players and teams every year that are not able to participate in the series because they missed a deadline. (I have already heard of some for 2011.)

I have also been able to add credit card payments as an option for paying the sectionals tournament fee. Please contact me for additional information.

Sectionals fees are expected to be paid by the final Roster Deadline of September 6th.

The 10 Teams currently registered for sectionals are:
BLUEREY
FIREBIRD
FOG OF WAR
GOAT
MAVERICK
MOBY DISC
PHOENIX
SUNY-BUFFALO
THAT WAS PUNNY
TORONTULA

Thanks,

Roster Deadline TODAY!

Today is the roster deadline!

You must register your team for the Series by entering a
roster of at least 10 players into the online rostering system.

College Extension Deadline – college and other school based teams may
apply for an extension by contacting byron@hq.usaultime.org and
requesting the extension. Teams that are given the extension may
create a roster with only one player by the Team Registration
Deadline. The team may add players on this roster until the Finalized
Roster Deadline for their section.

The Finalized Roster Deadline (Sept 6th) is second, and it is the date on
which your registered team can no longer make any more additions to
its roster. Between the two deadlines, you can only make 7 additions
to your roster.

All,

In order to avoid an unexpected conflict 2011 USA Ultimate Club Upstate NY sectionals is shifting to September 10-11th. Chicago Heavyweights is a weekend earlier this year so the date shift will allow us to maintain our conflict avoidance with that premier club event and maintain September 17-18th as a rain date while adverting a conflict with Fredonia's tournament. I have also lowered the tournament cost to $150 encourage college teams looking for a tournament to participate.
