Liebe Wurfpost

Um dem DFV die Arbeit zu sparen möchte ich die Mail gleich mal an euch 
weiterleiten mit der Bitte, dass ihr für alle eure Turnier dieses neue 
Scoresheet benutzt.
Über Feedback freut man sich natürlich, sofern es hilft das System zu 
verbessern!

To all National Organisations

We are very happy and proud to announce that WFDF and BULA have worked together 
on a new Spirit of the Game scoring system. Maintaining the Spirit is the key 
for us and having a system that correctly ranks and teaches Spirit allows us to 
further grow the sport while keeping the Spirit intact.

The new system got its foundation from the system that BULA launched in 2006 
(which has its roots in a system from Montreal). The system was further 
improved thanks to feedback from the Ultimate community worldwide and the work 
of Chris Schneider, Christian Jennewein, Dan Engstrom, David Raflo, Kolja 
Sulimma, Momme Butenschön, Natalie Visser, Patrick van der Valk, Paul Bernier, 
and Rue Veitl.

Scoring is now based on judging Respect, Fairness, Positive Attitude, Emotional 
Management, Rules Knowledge, and Physical Contact. Teams are also asked to 
reflect on their own Spirit.

To make it easy to adopt we created 3 similar documents: 

1. One SOTG scoring sheet on a page: http://beachultimate.org/SOTG_v2008_1.pdf 
2. Two SOTG scoring sheets on a page: http://beachultimate.org/SOTG_v2008_2.pdf 
3. Two SOTG scoring sheets plus a goal scoring sheet on the same page: 
http://beachultimate.org/SOTG_v2008_3.pdf 

The system was tested at the European Championships Beach Ultimate a few weeks 
ago and the feedback has been extremely positive. Please help us encourage all 
tournament and league directors to use this system and get feedback from the 
players to see what they think about it. 

This system for example allows the TD to give notice to a team if they 
repeatedly received "poor" grades in a certain category thus allowing to 
improve the overall spirit while the tournament is ongoing.
This system also sets a standard and if used worldwide if will suddenly make 
sense to publish the spirit score totals of a tournament which is something we 
are aiming for, too. To us it is not only important to see who has won the 
"Spirit Prize" but rather to see how the spirit of every team is. Teams which 
end up with a high score can be proud of their spirit even if they did not win 
the prize. Teams which end up with a low score can reflect on it and do 
something about it.

You can use the BULA blog (http://beachultimate.org/blog/2008/05/sotg.html ) or 
send me an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]  if you have any suggestions or feedback.

Please pass the word!

Thanks

The WFDF/BULA "Spirit of the Game" Committee
