3. ASSOCIATION NAME
The choice of �British� or �UK� in the name was discussed. It was unanimously agreed
that �UK� was preferable as it encompassed Northern Ireland. The name �UK Ultimate�
was decided upon as a succinct and descriptive name which avoided using an acronym.
4. TIMETABLE
Because we do not currently have contact with all UK players it was agreed that we
would give anyone who wanted the chance to vote. The only requirement was for
registrants to specify which team they play for.
Deadlines:-

Players to register for voting and to receive special Ultimatum issue
29th Oct: Players to return their votes by post or via website

5. ANY OTHER BUSINESS
World Clubs 2002, Hawaii requirements: All nominated teams will be required to provide
a non-refundable deposit of �750 to the association by November 15th. This is to deter
loss of UK places due to teams pulling out late. Any lost deposits to be used to fund
other WUCC 2002 attendees at the discretion of the board.
Caretaking the BUF: The current BUF officers agreed to continue running the BUF until
the election of the UK Ultimate board of directors on 3rd November.
