Dates: August 18th-20th, 2011
Location
:
Lake Nokomis Park
TIme
:
9:00am - 4:00pm
Sessions
: Boys & Girls

Overview:
This summer, Next Level Ultimate is hosting its first ever three-day clinic in Minneapolis. The mission of this clinic is to give high school players a taste of what our camps have to offer. Our counselors and staff will introduce some of the advanced fundamentals and techniques that are taught during our overnight camp sessions. If attending one of our overnight sessions isn't financially feasible for you this summer, this is a great way to save some money and still learn from some very experienced Ultimate players! And if you have attended one of our camps, this is a great opportunity to try out what you've learned!

Our Minneapolis three-day clinic will be filled on a rolling admission basis and is open to any high school players between the ages of 14-18 with no college-level experience. We have room to accommodate upwards of 40 boys and 40 girls in 2011.

Clinic Fee Structure:
Day Camper: $130 before 8/1/11, $145 after 8/1/11

-Each camper gets a camp jersey and disc, as well as an incredible elevate-your-game experience from the Next Level counselors and staff!
-No meals provided. Players must pack their own lunch.

Age/Grade Parameters:
Similar to our overnight camps, our clinic is open to high school players from the ages of 14-18. Those who have recently graduated high school and not yet attended a university are eligible to participate.

2011 Youth Club Championships - Volunteers Needed

Greetings,

YCC is coming up in just 10 more days and we still need a few volunteers.

Our largest need is for scorekeepers, especially on Sunday, but of course we will accept all kinds of help. Scorekeeping is light duty. For a morning or an afternoon, you get be on the sideline and watch a lot of great Ultimate while keeping track of the current score and goals and assists. At the end of each game, you collect spirit scores from each team and return the results to the Headquarters tent and then go do it again.

And in return, we have swag to give away. You’ll get a staff shirt, an event disk and probably some other stuff; maybe even lunch. Yes, it is bribery.

This is the first year of the new U16 Open division for YCC and there are eight teams signed up. Altogether, there are 35 teams in four divisions so we’ll have games going on 16 fields at a time. This is a big jump over the 10 or 11 fields of previous years and there will be no lack of things to do.

So, sign up at http://www.mnhsultimate.org/volunteeruc.aspx, forward this message to your High School teams and parents, talk it up among your own summer league team members and come on up to Blaine for a great weekend of Ultimate.

And, as always, I thank you for all that you do for Youth Ultimate.

See you on the 13th,

Bruce L. Mebust
