The complete Summer Schedule hasn't yet been made, but look at this week's games here:
https://www.leaguevine.com/seasons/20328/asheville-ultimate-club-summer-2013/games/

Also, the Summer League director has announced that in addition to final scores of games, teams will be expected to rate the "Spirit" (sportsmanship) of their opponents after games.  This rating will contribute in some degree to the final standings of the League.  So look forward to competing both physically and honorably on the field, as it will affect your team's final standing! 

Finally, MONDAYS, beginning June 17th, Memorial Fields will host two additional leagues through August 12th:
6-8pm
Field A: Women's Ultimate League
Field B: Men's Playing Opportunity
8-10pm
Field A: Rookie (Beginner's) League
Field B: Competitive Mixed Playing Opportunity

The cost for the Women's and Rookie Leagues will be $10, which will also get you a disc.  Simply show up with the $ and introduce yourselves, or show up and pay later via Paypal.  Please spread the word and introduce your friends and work buddies to our awesome sport. 

See you Wednesday!

Also, in order to track scores and provide a more interactive experience, I've wasted some time adding everyone to rosters and schedules at a nifty site at www.leaguevine.com  I urge you to check it out if Wednesday evenings aren't enough Ultimate in your life. Go there, find our league (Asheville Ultimate Club, Spring 2013), find your team, find yourself, and claim yourself as you.  Then you can track some general stats, put in your email for game reminders if you wish, heckle/applaud others online, however much you want out of it.  

See yall Wednesday, when the next quest for the Golden Bucket begins!
