TCUL is proud to announce our 2008 Summer Leagues! We are offering the following leagues for 2008:
- Co-ed Rec: our biggest league and the granddaddy
of them all! Co-ed rec league returns on Tuesdays at the National Sports Center
(NSC) in Blaine. Registration is $65 for a season running from May 13 to Aug
12.
- Co-ad Advanced: Thursdays in Blaine. Registration
is also $65 and the season runs from May 15 to Aug 14.
- Women's League: Our women's league is
returning for its seconds season. We're anticipating the league being
bigger and better. Women's league will be playing on Mondays at
Northview Junior High in Brooklyn Park. Registration is $40 and the
league runs from June 2 to August 11.
- Men's League: our Men's team league will also
play on Mondays at Northview Junior High in Brooklyn Park. The season
runs from June 2 to August 11. We offer 3 registration options:
- Full Team: 9 or more players, $265/team
- Partial Team: Do you have a group of guys that want to play
together but don't have enough players for a full team? Then
register as a partial team and the league organizers will combine
partial teams to make a fun, competitive league. Registration fees
are $25/person.
- Individuals: Sign up as an individual and we'll place you
on a team. Registration fees are $25/person
You are encouraged to register early. Spots are allocated on a first come
basis and are especially competitive for men. Last year the Thursday league
filled for men in 10 days.
Please note that you are considered registered when payment is received. All
fees are paid electronically via Paypal. Please note that if you pay with
an e-check, you are considered paid when the check clears (usually 4 to 5
business days).
If you have any questions or problems registering, please email our
support staff at tcul@mnultimate.org.

| With great excitement, I announce what will hopefully be the first
annual Spring League registration to round out four seasons of league
play for the Twin Cities.
My plan for the first year's league is to have an eight team draft
league, in the same vein as Tuesday/Thursday Night Summer League.
Games will take place at Lake Nokomis on
Saturdays from April 5 thru May 10 at 2:30pm. Each team will have 9 men and 6
women.
I envision the league as one that will have a wide variety of skills
and ages, somewhat similar to the Thanksgiving Hat Tourney that I've
thrown over the past few years. I've heard interest from club
players, people with considerable league experience, and the eager
newbies who may still be working on perfecting their throws etc. All
will be thrilled to get outside for the first few weeks (hopefully not
too rainy/snowy?/cold) and just run around. I don't feel like this
will be the best outlet for completely new players. It is a six week
league, and we won't quite have
time for the super basics, but I do envision this as a league where
players of all skills can learn from one another and have a great time.
Soon the official Bar of Spring League will be lined up, and with any
luck, we'll all head over together much like we go on to Biff's in the
summer and Tracy's in the Winter to commiserate and make new friends!
Much like Summer League, we will allow a buddy pair if both players
indicate that in their registration.
I'm excited. $30 will get you a league jersey as well as six fun filled
weeks of ultimate, stretching those outdoor legs for the first time in awhile
likely!
See ya on the field!

| If you squint hard enough, you just might catch a glimpse of summer. Bright
sun, a gentle breeze, the funky tang of your cleats on the porch. Hold on to
those summer thoughts because the Twin Cites Ultimate League is right around
the corner.
We're featuring four leagues again this summer. We'll run the granddaddy
of them all, the Tuesday co-rec league from May 13 - August 12. The advanced
co-ed league will run Thursdays from May 15 - August 14. Women's league is
back with a longer season from June 2 - August 11, and shares Mondays with the
Men's Team League, also June 2 - August 11.
Registration opens March 15. Leagues are popular and fill quickly. Men's
spots in the Thursday league closed out in just 10 days last year!
Designers: Help keep TCUL beautiful! Please submit your designs for
this year's discs and shirts to
tcul@mnultimate.org. If we pick your
design you get a free disc, bonus shirt, and individual registration for one of
the leagues. Deadlines haunt, however, so we need designs by March 10. Be sure
to check out design guidelines from
disccraft to keep revisions to a minimum.
Volunteers: We're always looking for help with the league. Be sure
to indicate your willingness to help out on the registration forms, or drop us
a line at tcul@mnultimate.org.
Looking forward to a great 2008,
TCUL Board

| The MN High School League is kicking off it's 2008 season. We are in need of
volunteers, as always. Lots of schools need help with coaching. You don't need
a lot of experience to help coach - most of the kids haven't played a lot and
we can almost always find someone to help you. If you are interested, please
email John Sandahl at
johnsandahl@gmail.com.
The league is also looking for a Treasurer. You would be responsible for
tracking funds, writing checks, and attending the board meetings (less than
once a month). This is a position that is compensated. If interested, please
contact Mike Berseth at
mike_berseth@yahoo.com by Jan
20th.
Thank you and have a nice day,
Mike Berseth
