It’s almost tournament time! Here’s where we stand:
1) Everyone must drive 15mph, or slower, on Island Pond Rd. This is the one and only road leading to the field entrance. We are very, very serious about this. Teams found to be speeding will be immediately ejected from the event.
2) Everyone must be mindful of the adjacent surroundings at the Oxbow. Please stay away from the Marina itself. Stay away from all boats. Do not swim in the river.
3) All teams must check in on Saturday morning at tournament central before their first game. The check in must be done by the official chaperone listed on the team roster. At check in, each team will need to:
- Show us their medical authorization forms unless they have previous been emailed to us.
- Submit a $100 check that will be returned at the end of the day on Sunday after your team has submitted their second spirit score sheet. (The Saturday spirit score sheet will be turned in on Saturday evening.) Checks should be made out to “Ultimate Good” and your team’s name should be listed in the memo field. Cash will not be accepted.
- Take care of any outstanding roster issues such as players that have not signed their waivers and/or paid their USAU dues.
3) Due to a team dropping this morning, the tournament schedule is not yet finalized. That being said, the schedule that is online right now is likely to be the final schedule, or very close to the final schedule. I am hoping to finalize the schedule by tomorrow evening.
4) If you have any team allergies that could impact what we put in your team box, please email Elliot and Christine. Please make sure you identify your team when you send your email. You can read about what we put in team boxes by default right here.
5) At this point all teams, including those that were on the wait list, have been sent an email connecting them with a host! If you did not receive your email, please check with the person on your team that filled out the Dinner, Housing, and Rostering confirmation form. If after speaking with that person you can’t find the email, please contact the PVI housing director, Tamar Fields. A few notes about tournament housing:
- Please make sure you contact your host! By default they are only providing floor space. You need to have a conversation with them if you’d like to ask for anything more than floor space. All showering is done at Northampton HS unless you arrange otherwise with your host. Make sure you ask your host if you’d like to use their kitchen.
- Bring your host a gift or two or three!
- Since all showering will be done a Northampton HS on Saturday evening, it may be helpful to bring shower gear, and a change of clothes, to your games on Saturday.
6) Tents must be set up at least 10 yards from any sideline. There will be a large area for tents north of field 4 and south of field 11. No gear is allowed to be placed within 3 yards of any sideline.
7) Please take a minute to look over your event roster. Please make sure your entire roster is listed and that you’ve removed any players that will not be attending. Teams found to be playing with an unrostered player will be immediately ejected.
