Hey Everyone, Hope you're all doing well and yearning to play some proper Northern Outdoor Winter Freezingour****off Ultimate... so ... Winter League? Please join the Mailing List <http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/NWL_Ultimate/>to stay informed as all future communication will be going through here. (http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/NWL_Ultimate/) also all this information and more will be available at www.NWL2007.co.nr The provisional dates (set the same nationally) are as follows:
NWL 1 - 18th November NWL 2 - 9th December NWL 3 - 13th January NWL 4 - 10th February - clashes with Mix & Mingle so unless anyone objects moving it to: 3rd February (UWIN weekend). NWL 5 - 9th March - clashes with Club Indoor Nationals ... may move to April 20th if enough people want to. In the recent past, winter league events have been seperate entities with different schedules and different aims, some to get a winner for 1 event, some to play as many games as possible. The aim this year is to run a flexible league: - Your team attends as many (all hopefully) or as few winter league events as you can make. - To start you will play against as many other teams as possible, then once you've played everyone once, you'll move to play teams of a similar standard, eventually playing close, tight games that will push you to play at your best. - The results will all be recorded and submitted to the National Ladder League Database thingy ... AND ... there will be overall placements for teams at the end of the league. So the more events you can make it to the greater the chance of winning the league. - If there are any funds left over from the tiny fee charged for attending an event then we'll sort out some prizes, for now do it for the glory! - NWL is an open league anyone can attend, Uni teams are welcome to bring open players along and in the past there has been at least 1 or 2 teams per event that could do with a few more players so feel free to get in touch if you want to pickup for a team. Now the NWL will only run if teams want it to, it only works if people get involved. With that in mind we need people/teams to host the winter league events. If you think you'd like to host a NWL event but aren't sure where to start or want some more info please get in touch ( [EMAIL PROTECTED]). To start you'll need at least space for 4 (pref more) full size pitches, Good place to find these things are: Local Parks / Sports Clubs / Schools / University Grounds. & Cones, but you can charge each team a little so you can buy some if you need to - i have a nice good cheap source btw. Everything else is desirable but at worst can be done without. If you want to host 1 or more events please email me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) with the following details: - Which Event - Location - No. of Pitches - Cost - Shelter & changing facilities? - Start & Finish time? (If not 9am-5pm) - Food available? (nearby supermarkets, onsite, etc) It would also be really helpful if you could provisionally let us know if you're interested in attending the winter leagues so we can get as organised as possible. Thanks lots. Look forward to hearing from you. Cheers Sophie & Luke PS: All this information and all details about upcoming events / past results / overall standings / schedule are available at www.nwl2007.co.nr -- Northern Regional Coordinator __________________________________________________ BritDisc mailing list [email protected] http://www.fysh.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/britdisc Staying informed - http://www.ukultimate.com/staying-informed
