Following up from last year's inaugural event, the second Annual Brisbane Indoor Ultimate Championships will be held again on the public holiday Ekka Wednesday, 11 August.
The long range forecast from the weather centre here in the stately mansion has the weather this day as miserable, wet, cold and windy - perfect for indoor Ultimate.
Indoor Ultimate is often played in much colder places than Brisbane, but has the great benefits of no wind and smaller teams, meaning everyone gets a go. Still lots of running to do. Great for a change of pace etc.
As per last year, the Championships will be held at basketball centre at the Clem Jones Centre in Carina - enter via the softball carpark off Zahel St. Doors open at 10.15am, games start at 11am, and we'll be done by 4pm.
Entry is initially limited to 8 teams, although if there is sufficient demand we will consider increasing this - but you should get organised sooner rather than later or you might miss out! Team registration closes on Friday 30 July.
Fees are expected to be between $130 per team, depending on numbers.
Rego at: http://www.afda. com/rego/ showcompetition. php?competitioni d=707 Well done to the three teams who have already registered.Rosters can have a maximum of 8 players. 5 players are allowed on the court - with a maximum of 3 per gender, and subbing is unlimited.
We greatly encourage people arranging teams with some sort of reason for being, aside from "here's my all-star team of friends". It'd be great for promotion etc to see Griffith vs QUT, West End taking on Moorooka, the Fresh Fries vs the Over-40s, 308 Brisbane Corso vs 8/47 Newcomen St, Mellow Yellow vs Dojo Mojo, etc etc. However, all up to you folks!
The rules used for the Brisbane Indoor Ultimate Championships will be the same as 2009 and are available at: http://brisbaneultimatedisc.blogspot.com/2009/07/brisbane-indoor-ultimate-championships.html

Be there this year to see the perpetual trophy unveiled!

Are Mongo returning?
And are there going to be like six different Heroes teams? There's a shedload of them guys.
Not sure on the Heroes front, no one has really talked about it, Stef thinks we'll be the team of year just by turning up at Halibut... So why bother with the BIC?? :P
No but in all seriousness we havent spoken about it, Ill put a call of interest out to the shedload of players and we'll see what comes.
On a side note, many ppl within the club are thinking about going to the quda coaching course on that day, so I think we could be split over both events... we'll see
Piers, Blair, Reece, Cupcake, Megz and Bree either don't live in Brisbane or are overseas for worlds. Hence Mongo is well and truly dead, the only member left from the original Mongo in Brisbane is Wetnose. Wait, no, he is in Thailand on his honeymoon.
THERE ARE NO MONGO PLAYERS LEFT IN BRISBANE!
The only team that has returned is the Newcomen team, with 2 different girls and Al.
Actually Jack, Megz still lives in Brisbane and is currently in the country right now
Megz, the 1 women Mongo back to defend the championship by herself?
GO MEGZ!
