Queensland Qualifer Confirmed - 4 September 2010

In lieu of this being able to be posted on the official QUDA website, the Brisbane Ultimate Blog is proud to host the following information.

QUDA will be hosting a short tournament to determine qualification and ranking for South Queensland teams seeking to represent our region at the upcoming Australian Mixed Ultimate Championships 2010 (aka AMUC or Mixed Nats) in Bathurst.

Four teams from Southern Queensland have provided Expressions of Interest to QUDA, and AFDA has offered three slots to the region. QUDA will therefore host a short tournament to determine which three teams get to go, and provide ranking information to AFDA.

Only these four teams will be eligible to compete in the competition. These are: John Doe; Sugar; UQ Lovers and Heroes. Players need to register on their teams at the earliest opportunity.

(Note that QUDA received one EOI from North Queensland (from the Towns Villains), and AFDA has offered one slot to that reason, so job done).

Date: Saturday 4 September
Venue: JF O'Grady Field, Fairfield
Price: Cheap - discuss with your Team Management. Fees cover field hire and AFDA/QUDA fees only. This will total to be about $6-10 per player, depending on team size.
Note: To keep the cost minimal, teams will provide their own food and be rostered to certain duties at the event, including filling their own water container.
