For an event this size, parking needs to be efficient, and it’s not possible for everyone (or even anyone) to park right next to their team’s field. We all need to cooperate on this. Please recognize the goodwill and the efforts of the volunteers who are working hard to make parking for PVI run smoothly, and please follow their requests and directions. We know you might be running a little late and you just want to get to the field to watch your player. We get it. In the spirit of ultimate, please be respectful of the parking coordinators and your fellow parkers, arrive early, and set a good example for your players.

And now a message from Tiina Booth!
Dear ultimate players and families,
Greetings from the National Ultimate Training Camp! I am the founder and director of NUTC, an overnight camp for players aged 14-18 located at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts. We are in our 25th year(!!) and registration opened at the end of February. Our sessions are:
Session A June 29-July 4
Session B July 6-July 11
Session C July 13-July 18
Our early bird deadline is April 11 at midnight ET.
We have many reasons for why we think NUTC could be a great choice for the ultimate player in your life. Here are just a few:
-regardless of their ability or experience, each camper will be supported and challenged throughout the week through lessons, drilling and lots of scrimmaging.
-our counselors are accomplished players who also know how to teach. They also prioritize keeping our campers safe over everything.
-the friendships that campers make with players from around the country often last into college and beyond. The NUTC community extends all around the planet!
You can read more about our camp at www.nutc.net Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions. We have scholarships available too.
Have a wonderful Spring!
Sincerely,
Tiina Booth
Director
