Hello all, I sent an email last month on the Women's ultimate egroup outlining how the Women's spots will be allocated for the European Club Championships 2005 [date/location TBA].
I have copied it to the end of this email for those of you who are not on that mailing list. If you are of the female persuasion, then you must join this list if you want to keep updated on women's issues. It's not fair to continue spamming every egroup known to the UK. Though it does remain fun. ;) SUMMARY FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T BE ASKED TO READ ONE MORE LONG EMAIL FROM ME: Women's spots for Euro Club Championships 2005 - UK likely to be allocated 3 spots for women's teams [TBC] - Winner of Women's Outdoor Nationals offered the first slot. They must accept or decline by October 1st. [London's HRH have been offered this slot for winning Nationals. Have till end of this month to accept or decline.] - For the remaining slots, teams (geo or non-geo) must e-mail an application including: 1) Team Name 2) List of 15 players that are likely to play on your team 3) Any other supporting reasons why your team should be allocated the slot. The applications will be discussed by the Newly elected Women's Ultimate Committee! It will be this group that will then vote on which teams will be allocated the remaining women's slots for European Clubs. Voting for the NEW! Women's Ultimate Committee is still open for all women until 23rd September: http://www.ukultimate.com/women/manifestos.aspx Women of Ultimate: get voting, and let's keep supporting each other on & off the pitch! Yours faithfully, Alia Xx x x women's coordinator ------------------------------------------ [Sent August 17th 2004] Hello ladies! A few weeks ago the Regional Women’s Coordinators & the women who played GB discussed the women’s division for the European Club Championships 2005. In the past, the team that won Women’s Outdoor Nationals was given the UK spot. This year has seen the introduction of the Women’s Regional All-Star tournaments as well as the Geo Women’s Tour events. The focus has been on developing all level of players and encouraging geo teams with regular local practices. In the past 8 months, it has been fantastic seeing the level of improvement overall in women’s ultimate! Our long-term eventual goal should be to have only Geo teams taking the spots for the European and World Ultimate Frisbee Club Championships. Teams that practice together regularly will always perform better than teams that do not. There are enough super stars spread throughout the UK that each Geo team should have strong established talent at hand. Even more excitingly, there are a large number of women who are "diamonds in the rough" just ready to step up & perform well for Britain if given the chance. This year, the UK is likely to be allocated 3 slots for the Women’s Division of the European Club Championships. The winner of Geo Women’s Nationals will be given an invitation to take one of these slots. They may accept or decline this invitation by 1st October 2004. The remaining team slots can be applied for by any team (ie geo or non-geo). These applications will be discussed by the Women’s Ultimate Committee (to be voted in this weekend at Nationals). These applications must include the name of your team, as well as a list of 15 players that will play for your team. Applications for these slots can be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] from now until 1st October 2004. Please include any other relevant information as you may see fit (for example if your team are reigning European Club champions, etc!) For more information, or if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to e-mail me or the group. See you at Nationals! love, Alia x women’s ultimate coordinator __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
