Today’s the paperwork due date! How’s your team’s paperwork going? We will be looking over everyone’s paperwork status in our systems this coming Monday. As long as you are already deep in the process, you’re all set. If you’re not far down the paperwork road… get on it. Now. Please. Background checks can take a while!

The dinner, housing, and rostering form has been temporarily reopened. If your team has yet to fill out this form, please fill it out by May 1st at the latest. At this point housing is not guaranteed, but dinner tickets are as long as you complete the form by May 1st.

And now a message from Tiina Booth:

Dear PVI Teams,

Greetings from the National Ultimate Training Camp! I usually visit teams at the PVI every year, dropping off a NUTC disc and stickers and chatting with players about our camp.

However, this year we may be sold out by the PVI. We are already 50% full, with campers from 13 different states plus Canada. Registration has only been open for 3 weeks. If you have players who love our sport, our camp will be perfect for them!

These are our July sessions:
Session A July 2-7
Session B July 9-14
Session C July 16-21

More info at www.NUTC.net

Scholarships are available. If you have any questions, please email us at NUTC.information@gmail.

John Rice from BUDA in Boston has a message to share:

I’m writing to let you know about a youth club tournament coming this summer in Amherst Massachusetts co-hosted by Valley Ultimate and BUDA that I’d love to invite your team(s) to attend.

We will be having the first “Northeastern’s” on July 22nd and 23rd in Granby Massachusetts (next door to Amherst & Northampton). 

The planning is still in early stages but we hope to have divisions for U20 open, gx, U17 open and gx as well as Mixed.

Right now we have commitments from BUDA (boston), Valley Ultimate (Amherst), and Maine Ultimate. We are in the outreach phase and hope to add a bunch more clubs as we proceed. We aim to make the tournament very affordable and fun for the players.

Please let me know if you think you might have interest.

ALSO – we would love to invite more Canadian and upstate NY teams. If any of you have contacts you could share along either of those lines (or for any clubs elsewhere too!) Please let me know.

If there are other people in your organizations I should be contacting instead please let me know!

Best regards,

John Rice
