Hi all,
For those of you who signed up for Canada, please make practice this week a priority. I will be talking about the teams, how to pack, and taking team photos for both a Black and Silver.
Varsity Tryouts are in full swing. There were several players unable to attend Exit 69, so tonight (Wednesday) will be a normal tryout. Thursday we will also have a tryout, but I will be making the first round of cuts throughout the practice. If you have questions, please come talk to me in person - because your ultimate career is your responsibility.
Practice is still on for all other boys and the ladies (obviously).
As we get into true fall weather, please remember to dress toasty warm. Bring layers, rain gear, bug spray, and anything else you might need to stay warm, dry, and sane.
Another Blitz is on for this coming weekend. If you have not yet signed up, please make sure you have a reason (not an excuse) and have communicated that to Debbi or Wendy. These fundraisers can make or break our season, and participation is mandatory for all players.

All players should bring the following to every practice: cleats, a dark shirt, a WHITE (not gray) shirt, your OWN water, and a disc (if you have one). Dress for the weather. We play through all weather (if fields are playable) except thunder and lightning. Every HUrtem is responsible for being Toasty Warm, and for transporting their water/gear TO AND FROM the fields. We leave the field better than we found it

2014/2015 Potential Tournaments
The following Tournaments and approx dates are for PLANNING purposes only! I receive many requests for tournament dates, practice days etc... for the entire year. This is quite difficult to do however, I'm trying to inform parents/players as early as possible. I do not have exact dates/times for several events Unless our participation is marked CONFIRMED our involvement is contingent on our 'Bid' being accepted. This means players signed up accurately, parents signed up accurately and their availability to provides transportation and/or chaperone at these events.
NOTE: Many changes are happening with our 'traditional' tournament format. Events we always plan to participate at during the year have changed their dates, bid process or in one case, the tournament itself may not happen this spring. We are exploring alternate options as noted below. The list below is NOT COMPLETE. It is what I have at this time. Thanks, Debbi.

What is Hopkins Ultimate?
Mission: The goal of HUrt and HERt Force is to promote the sport of Ultimate within the Twin Cities through participation in, encouragement of, and recruitment for every level of Ultimate, including high school, club and college play. And, to strive for the highest level of competitive excellence in Ultimate.
What's Ultimate? Two teams of seven players compete on a field 70 yards long, 30 yards wide. Everyone is free to move, except the person with the disc. Upon catching the disc, you stop, and pass it within 10 seconds or it's a turnover. If someone drop the disc or it's intercepted, that's a turnover. Play rarely stops except for a score. A point is scored when a player catches the disc in an end-zone 25 yards deep. Typically, the first team to reach 15 points (with a two-point margin) wins, but there are some variations to cap the length of time played. The game is self-officiated.
