1. The JV team will be going to a one-day tournament at St. Johns on
Saturday the 27th of January (check the calendar link to the right).
Please post in the comments by Tuesday the 23rd if you want to and
can go, unless you have told coach Russ personally. We would
apreciate a parent or two to come along (and drive). We will be
leaving around 10 am and getting back around 11pm. I will post
specifics on travel when we know who is going and driving. I will be
in Boston for this weekend, but Kelly or another coach will carry the
torch for me.
2) The JV team has a meeting set for Thursday, February 1st at Eli
Leonard's house at 7:00. We will have some snacks, but we won't be
serving dinner, so please eat beforehand.
3) Jerseys. "Many people are eager to receive their jerseys. For
those of you whose jerseys I am holding, you will have to get them
either at Wednesday practice or at the upcoming team meeting, at the
team meeting. There are also those of you who did not get in on the
first order. We are getting a second order ready, so far I have
requests from:
Daniel Raskin
Sam Bumstead
Aaron Kitchner
Andreas Moebius
Adam Rafowitz
Please respond in the comments if you need to be in the next jersey
order. Indicate your name, size and some number preferences (if you
care.)
ps. Everyone who plays at St. Johns will have a Hurt Jersey to wear,
though it may not be their permanent property.

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.

we seem to have a good schedule, guys! that should work well for us.
this is just a friendly reminder to the players (especially if this is their first tournament) to check the website and make sure they have everything they need in their ultimate bag. especially the right footwear, extra socks, water and FOOD. yes, the concession stand will be open, but i don't think it has been food that would be good for you to eat during a tournament. this place usually has the makings for PBJs, but i don't remember much else. so go buy some protein bars, some gatorade (to mix with your water), fruit, and whatever else gets you going. (trust me, hot dogs aren't going to cut it, boys.) if you have any questions, Russ and i will both be at practice on wednesday, you can ask us then or give us a call.
for the parents:
the kids have been told again and again about Ultimate's "spirit of the game" which i think sets the sport above and beyond other sports.
"Spirit of the Game. Ultimate relies upon a spirit of sportsmanship which places the responsibility for fair play on the player. Highly competitive play is encouraged, but never at the expense of mutual respect between players, adherence to the agreed upon rules of the game, or the basic joy of play. Protection of these vital elements serves to eliminate adverse conduct from the Ultimate field. Such actions as taunting of opposing players, dangerous aggression, belligerent intimidation, intentional fouling, or other 'win at all costs' behavior are contrary to the Spirit of the Game and must be avoided by all players."
the greatness of it is that it is not only for the players and coaches, but for everyone on the sidelines as well, and that is you! Ultimate is a game that is self-officiated by the players on the field. that means that there is no referee and even the coach can't make a call! this is a great opportunity for kids to learn the rules and to implement conflict resolution. It's also a great opportunity for parents to provide, cheer, and yell nothing but positive reinforcement for our team. i hope to meet a lot of you there!
see you saturday,
Kelley
