Winter League Update – Jan 21

(To the tune of Good Vibrations by Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch)

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.

Coming Soon! — Winter League Happy Hour, Showcase Game and End-of-season party details…

Poobah or Not Poobah, What was the question?

Winter League 2010/2011: Registration is OPEN!

jmechler — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 20:44:04 +0000

That’s right, just mosey on down to dallaswinterleague.com and sign in with your user info from last year, or register a new username if you didn’t play WL last year and then click on the “League Registration” link on the top right corner of the nav bar.

A few notes about registration: first of all you’ll notice that pricing has gone up this year. It will cost you $70 to play this year, with the usual 5 dollar discount for new players. We’ve decided to raise rates in order to provide better food each week for everyone and to take all responsibility out of player’s hands. If you miss the registration deadline and we’re feeling generous enough to let you register, YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY DOUBLE!

REGISTRATION ENDS WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 17TH AT NOON!

I highly suggest you register sooner, rather than later to avoid any headaches.

We’re sticking with last year’s pairing rules which means that each recreational player is allowed to be paired automatically with exactly one other Winter League player. Competitive players can only be paired together if there is a small child that would need watching on the sidelines. You are welcome to make pleas for more pairings in the comments section, but these pairings are not guaranteed, and will be accommodated as best as we can at draft time. If you have 7 players you want to play with you, I suggest you email me and let me know
that you are captaining a team.

Any player pairings will be subject to a vote by the captains to determine the player’s skill level and draft position.

If you have any other questions please check out the FAQ on the site at http://dallaswinterleague.com/wp/faq/ and if that still doesn’t answer your question or you haven’t told me you’d like to captain this year, feel free to e-mail me directly at slepe7@yahoo.com.

Let’s roll!
Alex Lepe
