On Saturday, June 16th, the Boston Ultimate Disc Alliance will be hosting their 20th annual "Good Cause Hat Tournament" in West Roxbury, Massachusetts. A few of us from the league are gonna be heading down there to play, so if you're interested in coming with, e-mail Jared at NyM9NyJ7@yahoo.com as soon as you can and let him know you're interested.
Information on the tournament can be found at http://www.buda.org/j2/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=303&Itemid=598. If you're not familiar with "hat" tournaments, here is a quick overview:
1 - Everyone registers for the tournament individually - this is not a team tournament.
2 - Players are then placed on teams based on their skill level in attempt to create even teams. Thus, you may be on a team with a friend, or you may not.
3 - These teams are then set, and subsequently compete in games as they would in any other tournament (4 or 5 game per team).
Basically it's a fun day of competitive ultimate frisbee with new people!
