Captains Practice

We hope everyone had a relaxing summer but now it's time to get to work. We're starting the 2009-2010 season with the first captains practice Saturday August 15th from 12 pm-2pm at Lions Park in Golden Valley. We will be throwing around and scrimmaging and everyone who plans on playing Jv, Girls or Boys varsity should show up but it is fine if you can't make it.

We know that not everyone has checked the blog the past couple of months so after reading this post, spread the word to anyone you know who plays or is interested in playing. Can't wait to play some ultimate Saturday, see you there.

Sincerely,
Your Captains: Emma Peaslee, Jenna Dailey, Haley Arenson, Josh Klane, Eli Leonard

Hurt Recruitment Video and Open House - Help Spread the Word!

Come Be In The HUrt Recruitment Video!
When: Monday August 10th from 4-6pm (players can come and go anytime during that 2 hours)Where: Burnes Park
What: To film a video that will be shown at junior high open houses to encourage new players to join our team. You would be either playing pickup (as a background) or being interviewed about HUrt and Ultimate in general.

If you can come please reply in the comments section and wear HUrt jerseys to the event. Snacks will be provided.

Also, I would love to have 5 other kid volunteers, beside myself, and 1 other adult to stand at tables for the junior high open houses on August 26th. If anyone is interested leave a comment to that effect in the comments section.

There would be two groups of 3, one at West and one at North with a parent at each. The timing for West is 5:30-8:30, and North is from 4-7. These are three solid hours of volunteering that you can mark down for NHS or any other thing you do like that! Thank you so much for the help!

YCC Volunteers Necessary!

Here's a message from Jeff Hagen of the MNHSUL about YCC. Parents, if you are going to be watching your son/daughter at YCC (or even if you're not), please consider volunteering. Kids, if you're not playing YCC, you can help out too!

Dear local Ultimate enthusiast-
Will you donate a few hours of your time for youth Ultimate?
The 2009 UPA Youth Club Championships are being held at the National Sports Center in Blaine on August 8th and 9th, and we need volunteers.
Volunteers are the backbone of successful UPA championship events, and you can be a part of the future of Ultimate at the Youth Club Championships. Whether you want to dive in and immerse yourself in the event for days, or just help out a little in between watching some great action, we can find something perfect for you. From scorekeeping to setting up fields, from helping keep the players hydrated to helping keep the site clean, there are lots of opportunities to contribute.
Please go to http://www.mnhsultimate.org/volunteer.aspx to indicate your willingness to help. Volunteer Coordinator Jeff Hagen is available to answer your questions. 651-341-9448 or wblultimate@yahoo.com.

Potential Car Wash

We have a slot at Cub Foods on 101 from 10-4 on August 8th for a car wash fundraiser.

However, a lot of our players have the Youth Club Championship (YCC) tournament that weekend and won't be able to make it. We want to know if there are enough players not playing in that tournament that would be able to help out that day. 

Comment under this if you are available to help

JV Practice Tuesday at Lindbergh

Tuesday May 5th we have practice at Lindbergh # 10 (Next to the climbing wall) instead of our normal location.   

Also our Thursday game against Cooper is being re-scheduled to the following week.  So there will not be a game this Thursday.  

Note from Madison host family

We received the following from the JV Host family and Susan asked that I share it with all the players who stayed at her home. (I love receiving notes like this. Way to go, Hurt!)

Thank you for the gifts we really appreciate them. It was a pleasure to have your kids. I am just sorry the weather did not cooperate. Colin will be wearing the Hopkins cap at Granite City Tournament this weekend as it looks like it could be sunny! We found one blue and white under armor shirt. Gavin our senior will have it at the Hopkins Ultimate tournament next weekend.

Hope to see your guys next year,

Mudbath Aftermath

It was very disappointing to have the Madison Mudbath canceled beneath us this weekend. We were all quite ready for a big weekend of Ultimate play. I appreciate everyone's flexibility in adjusting and regrouping.

I had a question about refunds and I thought others may have the same question. The $35 paid by each player covered our team registration fees, coaches' travel and host gifts, and I'm afraid we spent all that despite the rain. The Mudbath web site has the following disclaimer::

As with all outdoor sporting events, the MadisonMudBath can be canceled or altered due to weather. The tournament is held on the athletic fields used by all Memorial high school teams during the spring and cannot be permanently damaged. If this occurs we will be unable to provide refunds.

Unfortunately, that means we have no refunds.

The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

Hey guys,

Way to work this weekend and bring Hopkins its first Paideia cup ever. It truly is a moment to remember.

But, as many of you know, I was pretty sick on Sunday. I went to the doctor and my strep test came back positive. Please be on the look out as we were in confined spaces this weekend.

Hopefully I didn't infect anyone. Let me know if you have any questions.

Congrats once again, this is only the beginning,

Shaps

MADISON MUDBATH LODGING

Parents,

The Madison Mudbath (April 24-26) is the "Ultimate" way to get your feet wet in this tremendous sport. We want to encourage all parents to travel to the tournament and cheer your kids, whether you're a designated driver or not. And since all three of our teams are entered, you'll never be at a loss for a game to watch and cheer at.

Also, we've managed to get a pretty good lodging rate at the Radisson Hotel Madison, less than a mile from the fields. (Download PDF Map at right). We've reserved a block of rooms at a very special rate of $75 per night (plus tax). That includes your choice of King bed or 2 double beds (and Sleep Number bed, at that) and a daily hot buffet breakfast.

You must call the hotel by Wednesday, April 22 to be assured of this special rate! Just call:

Radisson Hotel Madison

608-833-0100

Tell them you're with "Hopkins Ultimate Team"

For more hotel information, please visit http://www.radisson.com/hotels/madison. We hope to see everyone there supporting the Hopkins Ultimate teams. Any questions, please feel free to call me at 612-508-6965 or email me at jdailey@healthmarketer.com.

Thanks,

PAIDEIA WEB SITE

For the most current information on Paideia, following is a link to the Paideia Cup 2009 web site: http://paideiacup.googlepages.com/. The tournament director has also promised to send regular updates during the tournament, which I will then post here.

John

P.S. Make sure you check out the tourney schedule and, more importantly, the photos posted of the 2007 Paideia Cup. Our team looks SOOOO young...

Boys Varsity Paideia Meet time - 11:30 AM, FRIDAY 4/17 at HUMPHREY Terminal

Please meet in the Humphrey Terminal of MSP at 11:30 AM on Friday. From there John Dailey will have our boarding passes and we'll go through security together and to our gates.

Stuff to bring in your carryon: cleats, jerseys, socks to play in, braces, etc., anything else you may need for the game . This is so that in the unfortunate occurrance of lost luggage, you will still have the bare minimum of stuff needed to play.

Each player has been allotted ONE checked bag included in the total cost of the tourney. Please, if you are planning on checking more than one bag, have $15 per bag ready to pay at the airport check-in counter. We are only gone for a weekend, so there shouldn't be too much stuff you need to bring.

As always, please review the TSA's 3-1-1 policy for carry-on liquids. This is still the case. Where your coaches and parents may be forgiving, "forgetting" about TSA policy means your stuff gets left behind.

Here's a link to review the policy: http://www.tsa.gov/311/index.shtm

Thanks,
Mikey K

PAIDEIA UPDATE - BILLETING INFO

Howdy y'all (need to get used to Atlanta-speak):

Here is the billeting information for the guys at the Paideia Cup. The family's name is Laseter. Following is a bit of information that Helen Laseter provided in her email introducing her family:

"Our family consists of Scott and me (parents) and two children who are students at Paideia, Henry (age 11) and Charlotte (age 8). We also have Frenchie, who is a friendly german shepherd. As you can see, we don't have a current Paideia high school player. We do, however, have a carpeted basement with a bath, and a separate guest room with two beds and a bath. There are other baths in the house the players may use as well. Our set up seems to have served the North Hills team well for the past two years .

"I hope you will ask us for whatever would make this trip best for your team and not worry about putting us out. We can do meals here or point you in the direction of good restaurants. FYI, in the past the players have had breakfast here (of the egg, cereal, bagel, fruit variety) and done non-Saturday suppers both here and at a sports pub nearby. Whatever works for you! We hope you'll make yourselves at home. And we'll be your best fans, until you play the home team, of course."

Gentlemen, your job will be simple...help the Laseters forget about supporting the Paideia School team. Give them a new HOME team to cheer! They sound like great folks, and by the way, Helen Laseter was a graduate of Blake School (ok, we will forgive her for that).

Parents, following is the Laseter's information for your records:

Helen and Scott Laseter
1294 Briardale Lane, NE
Atlanta 30306
404-370-1313 home

I have created pdf maps and directions for: ATL airport to the Laseter's Home, and from the Laseter's Home to Paideia Cup Tourney and the Holiday Inn (where parents are staying). Interestingly, the Holiday Inn is directly between the Laseter's and the Tourney. Special thanks to tournament director Dave Clauson. The logistics couldn't have worked out better!!!

If you'd like the maps, please email me at jdailey@healthmarketer.com or call me at 612-508-6965.

Thanks,
John

*** Remember... AirTran Airways departs and arrives from the Humphrey Terminal on 34th Ave S. ***

Baggage info:
* We have included your first checked bag in your tournament fee ($15). Any extra checked luggage will be the responsibility of the athlete beyond the first bag.
* Please don't show up with your old hockey equipment bag as your carry-on luggage. LOL. "No carry-on item may exceed overall dimensions of 55 inches (length + width + height)." To be sure of the requirements for carry-on and checked baggage, please check the following link: http://www.airtran.com/policies/carry-on_checked.aspx
* Check with your coaches as to what items they want you to carry on with you (e.g., jerseys, spikes, shorts, etc.)

HOUSING/BILLETING INFORMATION:
We just received the name of the family you'll be staying with in Atlanta. The family's name is Lasiter. Helen Lasiter, the mom, is actually from Minnesota. They have the youngest Ultimate players in Paideia School. According to Dave Clauson, tournament director, the Lasiters have a history of being a source of great luck. Every team they've housed has been in the Paideia Cup final. Let's keep their streak alive!!!! I will be contacting Helen Lasiter today and will post more information as soon as I receive it (address, phone number, directions, etc.)

GROUND TRANSPORTATION:
After a bit of searching and negotiating, we were able to get a reasonably good deal on two 8-passenger Sienna vans through Alamo. The challenge was finding a rental firm that was open late on Sunday and that didn't require rental vehicles just to get to the rental vehicles. We managed to get a little over 30% off their Internet rates with a little (ok, a lot) of begging. The vans will be available at the Atlanta Airport upon arrival and will need to be returned between 7:00 - 7:30 on Sunday evening.

ATHLETE PARTICIPATION FEES:
The total participation fee for each of the 14 guys on the Varsity Team is $460.00. Each participant has already paid $225. The balance of $235 per athlete is due ASAP. Please get your checks payable to "Hopkins Ultimate" to your coach or directly to:
Sheri Brenden
2317 Archers Lane
Minnetonka, MN 55305

Anyone whose full payment is not received before the Friday departure WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO TRAVEL WITH THE TEAM!!

Your fee includes: airline ticket ($311.20), 1st checked bag fee ($15), rental vehicles and gas, coaches travel and per diem expenses, tournament registration fee, and host family gift.

If anyone has any questions re: any of the travel arrangements, please feel free to call me at 612-508-6965. I'll be happy to explain anything I can.

Thanks for allowing me to help. And may the winds of great fortune be at the backs of our men.

Pop is an elite women's club team in the area. Yes, we'll be at Paideia Cup, but those who cannot attend and other readers of this blog:

Varsity Boys Practice

Boys make sure that you are at practice ready to play at 6:00. We don't have a ton of day light and we don't want to spend it warming up and lacing up shoes.

If you have to be there a half an hour in advance to be ready, do so. The team will begin warming up at about 5:45 so we use practice time for practice.

At this point in the season coaches need to know if you are going to be at practices. Make sure you let them know.


Lets get ready for Atlanta, there isn't much time.

*UPDATED* Housing NEEDED for the Hustle

What is needed in terms of Hosting:
-At least 3, possibly 4 Families to host full teams for the Hustle.
-10 (possibly more) families to host for SJR (2-3 kids per house)
They have 30 players coming (14 girls, 16 guys).
They'd bus down here on Friday the 8th to some central location and the host families would go pick up their kids - the players would stay with the host family for Friday and Saturday nights. Families would then be responsible for getting the players to the fields on Saturday morning and picking them up and the end of play Saturday afternoon .Then returning them to the field for play on Sunday morning w/ all their gear, and they'd return to Canada from the fields at the end of play on Sunday. The players - all HS students to the best of my knowledge - will sign a waiver agreeing to abide by all family rules and expectations of behavior. The kids will know that they'll be asked to leave if they fail to comply and they will be turned over to the cruel custody of the Canadian coaches ...... We'll let Hosting Families know if their players have special dietary needs or food or other allergies.

I have 3 families at the moment right now saying that they will host. So PLEASE if you can host either a whole team or a few Canadian players either post in the comment section or e-mail me @ Rabrams91@gmail.com

Thank you so far to all the parents and players that have volunteered their time to help out with the Hustle.

Hosting for the Hustle

As of now, I have 3 families that have volunteered to host for the Hustle. We are not sure on the numbers at the moment for what is needed, but I just need to get a feel for people that are interested in hosting. We might only need 4 families, but we might need A LOT more than that. So please, ask your parents and post if you are interested in hosting.
If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail me at rabrams91@gmail.com

Thanks
