Whoa.

The 100+ volunteers and I thank you for being such wonderful teams! We couldn’t be happier with how things turned out, and a HUGE part of the success of the event is because of teams like yours!

If possible, please forward this message to all members of your team.

Some good stuff for you:

1) To answer the question we know you’ve been wanting to ask, yes, you sure can follow Mabel and Buffy on Instagram!

2) We’d like everyone that attended the event — players, coaches, chaperones, spectators — to fill out this short online feedback survey. The information you submit will helps us build an even better event in 2019! We know that filling out feedback surveys can be a drag, but know that the best way for us to improve the event, by far, is to hear from you.

3) Mark your calendars for May 18th and 19th, 2019! That’s when we’ll be holding the 6th annual PVI! The event will be back at the Oxbow!

4) We’d love to see any and all photos and video that you took this weekend. Please post whatever you can share to the PVI Facebook page. You can also send files directly to us using this link.

5) Please look over the reported game scores. Let me know via email (josh@pvinvite.org) if you see any numbers that aren’t right. At this point I have posted all submitted game scores as well as all spirit results. All game scores were also reported on Scorereport.net: Girls, Boys

6) Here’s what was left in the lost and found. If you recognize any items, please email Sheldon (sheldon@steadysales.com), the keeper of the Lost & Found with your address. Shipping on most items to most locations will run $7.50. Items not claimed by June 1st will be donated to charity.

7) All spirit scores are now online (XLS: Girls Division, Boys Division) and embedded below. I will be directly emailing each team their written comments in the next few weeks.

[Green means above average for the division and red means below average for the division. Orange means the high score for that column.]

The tournament schedule has now been updated with all results from Saturday. All teams can find out where they are playing their first game on Sunday on that page.

There is a chance there will be thunder and lightning tomorrow. If we need to clear the fields, we will signal you with 5 horn blasts as well as a text message to the tournament group. Immediately clear the fields (STOP any active ultimate) and return to your vehicles. We will send word via text message when you can return to the fields. Please join the tournament text messaging group by texting @pvi2018 to 81010. If you’re having trouble joining the group via text, you can also join with the Remind app. 

Do you have photos or videos you’d like to share with us? Send them to us here! We’ll be sure to share them on our Facebook page! We’d love any photos and videos you can send in!

Spirit scores averaged by category are online here. A few sheets from Saturday have yet to come in, so the posted numbers aren’t perfect. They will also all be updated after games are complete on Sunday.

The following teams have yet to turn in their Saturday spirit score sheets. Please turn in your Saturday sheets before your games start on Sunday.

• Forest City Girls
• Northampton V Boys
• Ottawa Ignite Boys
• Ottawa Scorch Boys
