If we catch unpaid players playing, that team will be forced to forfeit any games played by said player.
Playas gotta play, players pay to play.

January 28th – ALL GAMES ON!
Jan 27
Little rain here and there? Fear not!
All games are ON this weekend! Big ups to Turkey for going out and checking them out for us. Seriously, if you see this guy walking around, get that man a drink! He certainly earned it.
We’re going to shift fields a little bit to avoid oversquishy end zones, so make sure you pay attention to cones for your boundaries… not that the lines were very visible any more anyway.
Which brings up the fact that we’ll need a handful of volunteers next Thursday to re-line the fields. If you’re available Thursday afternoon, please let us know at dwl@dallasultimate.org.
Field 6 is likely to not be playable, so we’re likely to move that field over to the open unused field space so keep that in mind if your rec captains are Lauren, Alex, Carol, Commander, Garlyn, or Glenn.
Food this weekend is Hard Eight BBQ, so play your butt off to build up that appetite!
Finally, please be extra careful getting in and out of the parking lot this weekend.
We always need to be mindful of speed, but this week everyone needs to be extra careful about getting in and out of the parking lot since the area around it has been described as “moat-ish.” Please look for the least muddy way in to avoid cars getting stuck in the mud.
See you guys out there bright and noony!
Bibbidy, bobbidy, POOBAHS!

Yo! It’s about that time
To bring you
Some real simple cheap rhymes
I spent time
So share some of yours
You want to read this
Then have a cold Coors (Ed note: If you’re 21+)
It’s week 5
And as I’m spillin’ this,
It’s strictly updates
No tauntin’ serious,
It’s lucky that writing is my occupation,
So read on now, here’s your WL notation…
C’mon, C’mon!
- Schedule — This is the first week of revised REC schedule. You’re all big enough boys and girls to check it out and make sure you end up in the right place.
- Scores: Captains — captains can now update your regular scores on the page all by yourselves. If you want to guarantee correct scores, update them by logging into the dallaswinterleague.com site.
- Spirit Scores — Please continue to submit your spirit scores to Glenn. If you don’t submit at least 80% of your scores for your opponents, you won’t be eligible to receive the schwag that team spirit winners get. We’ll be posting the current spirit standings and I’ll let you know what weeks you’re missing after this week’s play.
- Dallas Ultimate Facebook Page – So you don’t read email? Join the Dallas Ultimate facebook page for all your winter league info, pick-up games, spring league news and more.
- Food this week: Hot italian discs filled with meat, veggies, cheese and sauce. You’ll love it in your mouth.
- Doggies — Please, Please be careful about your dogs. The safety of our players is first. Your dog’s presence at the fields is second. Watch out for your dogs and be willing to stake them behind an end zone. They won’t miss you too much and they’ll still get to enjoy winter league.
- The Parking Lot — 1st time speeding is a warning. Second time is you don’t come to Winter League for a week.
- Shirts – Please arrive early to get your shirt if you haven’t picked it up yet. Check with your captains to see if they picked up your shirts. If you haven’t paid, no shirt. Noon is not early.
- Informal Beginner’s Clinics – We still have experienced players showing up early to help you out. If you get to the fields by 11, there will be someone to work on throws and game knowledge with. Take advantage of elite (and some good “coaches”) giving up their time to get you good at disc!
- Unpaid — If for some reason ya haven’t paid, ya need to get that fixed, ASAP. WL accepts Cash, Check or CC and will have staff available to take payment prior to games on Saturday. If you show up at noon and expect us to give you your shirt or pay…Think again. Be there by 11:30 to get your business done.
- Rain checking – Game is on. Game is on.
- Car Pool — If you’re interested in car pooling, please join the DWL Car Pool Organizing Board group on Facebook.
