Tournament Rules:

Start times are very important.  Please observe cap, and monitor time.  Games start promptly at 9:00am.  If one team is ready and the other is not, the ready team needs to put 7 players on the line at 9:00am, and begin assessing 1 point for every 5 minutes the game is delayed.  (Eg. 9:05am, game is now 1-0).

Games are short, keep calls to “contest” and “no-contest”.  Don’t neglect Spirit of the Game.  Arguments should be decided by CAPTAINS ONLY.

Hard-8 BBQ will be served starting around noon-time and will continue into the evening, so if your team loses, be sure to hang around and heckle up a storm! End of season party starts at 7pm, and will go until we run out of steam, with a live band and a kickin’ crawfish boil, so put on your dancin’ shoes and get on out there!

Let me draw your attention to one very important change:

The “rain-out” week for Mardi Gras has been moved from 2/20/10 to 2/13/10 to coincide with the annual Mardi Gras tournament!  We will be doing “something” (details to come later) on the 13th, but it will not be a standard week of WinterLeague. Captains need to make super triple sure that they tell their teams to show up on the 20th.

Check the rainout line before heading out, but as of now: GAME ON.

Rainout hotline: 214.654.5478

There have been some late-breaking changes to our parking situation. It is going to be very difficult if people do not carpool. Please read the details below from Tom to make sure you are not walking an extra mile to get to the fields!

Email Tom if you are willing to volunteer your minivan for shuttle service.

To pay via Pay Pal, follow the Dashboard link. There will be a link to pay via paypal. If you are not already logged into the site, you will be asked for your username and password.

To pay via check, just bring it with it on Saturday. If you haven’t already mailed it, there’s a good chance of it not being received and processed in time.

You can check your payment status on the Rosters page. There will be a note at the top that indicates the last time payment status was updated.

All,

You should be getting an email soon from your captain with details about this weekend.  If you haven’t gotten an email, you can check which team you are on by going to the “Rosters” page and finding your name.  If you are not on the rosters page, you did not register, and need to contact me.

Other things to keep in mind-

1) Polo field rules:

• All dogs must be on a leash at all times

• No bottled beer opened on the fields area, only near the food / check-in area

• No standing, sitting, or walking on the Stands area (on top of the hill) or the scoreboard

• No illicit substances of any kind

• Please park in the appropriate locations. Parking “at” the fields is for administrative personnel only. (Parking areas are indicated here: http://dallaswinterleague.com/wp/map/ )

• Please make sure to not leave ANY trash on the fields. If it came with you, make sure it leaves with you. Lost and found is over next to the food service area.

2) Check-in procedure:

• Games start at noon. Please be there by 11:30am to get checked in and receive your disk, and shirt (if shirts are available). We are unsure if the printer will get them complete on time, so please remind your teams to bring both a white and a dark shirt just in case. Grey is neither.

• Check in at the food service area (illustrated here: http://dallaswinterleague.com/wp/map/ ), pay if you need to pay, or just get checked off the list if you have paid. You will be handed a player’s packet (bag of goodies) and a disk. IF WE DO NOT HAVE SHIRTS AVAILABLE, please bring your disk week 2. Showing your disk will work as proof of payment to allow you to get your shirt without once again going through the “check-in” line

3) Things to bring:

• Something to drink.  Water or gatorade.  Beer is allowed at the field, but is not provided by the league.

• Checkbook if you haven’t paid. You can not pick up your disk and play week 1 if you have not paid.

• Utensils / Mug / Plate. Frisbees make decent plates. Pizza will be served after the game (please limit yourself to 2 slices), but cups and plates are NOT PROVIDED each week.

• A white shirt, and a dark shirt.

Thanks,

I look forward to another great season!
