Registration
On Thursday, June 3rd.
Of course! We greatly encourage new participants to the sport of Ultimate Frisbee. Just sign up and you will be placed on a team.
You can safely assume your registration form and check made it to the Commissioner and that you are registered for the draft. Certainly, your cancelled check is proof that you are registered if you registered well before any of the deadlines. If you mail your registration form and it gets a postmark after April 25th, however, you are *not* registered, and your check will either be shredded or mailed back to you (upon special request).
It is the responsibility of the Drafting Captain to contact each and every one of their players as soon after the draft as practical to let them know they have been placed. It is also the responsibility of that Captain to let his or her teammates know when (what time) their first game is. The schedule is usually available to the Captains at draft, and the game schedule will be posted to the DSUL website shortly after the draft occurs.
Players younger than 16 are highly discouraged from playing in the DSUL. The DSUL is an adult league, for the most part.
Drafting captains will NOT be refunded their reg fee. Compensation for volunteering to be a DC will be their appetizers and beverages of choice on draft night. Draft night for B league is May 11th and May 13th for the A league.
There will be a B draft on Tuesday night, May 11th, followed by the A draft on Thursday night the 13th. Only drafting captains (one per team) will be allowed to attend these drafts.
Unfortunately, no.
Playoffs are on Saturday, August 7th 2010.
It ends on midnight April 24th, 2010.
$65 until midnight, April 11th. A $75 registration is in place in from April 12th, until midnight, April 18th. It then goes up to $85 from April 19th until midnight, April 25th.
You get to play in the premier Denver summer Ultimate Frisbee league for starters. And you get a t-shirt with cool, custom artwork on it as well an official Discraft Ultimate Frisbee throwing disc. And there is beer provided after the games. You only have to bring your own cup. What a deal!!
If you register online and then pay thru Paypal you should get 2 emails. One from Paypal that is your payment receipt and one from DSUL. And if all goes thru correctly then you will also be listed on the 2010 Player List.
If you register online thru DSUL.org and do not get the 2 emails confirming registration then please read the following.
If you get the Paypal receipt but not one from DSUL then check your junk mail folder. Sometimes they don''t make it thru. Or, if you only get the Paypal receipt email but NOT one from DSUL then check to see if you are in the 2010 Players List. If you are on the 2010 Players List then you're golden.
You will have to login to see the "2010 Players" link in the top horizontal menu.
So, If you have the Paypal receipt email and you are in the 2010 Player list then all is good and we will see you on the fields!
Games
DSUL plays on Thursday nights at 6:20 and 7:30.
Please don’t. There have been too many incidents involving aggressive dogs.
Games are never cancelled. Games will, however, be postponed on a minute-by-minute basis in case of lightning in the immediate vicinity. By ‘immediate vicinity’, that means if there is lightning within 5 miles or thereabouts, the clock still runs, but players are encouraged to follow their instincts and do the right thing. However, for every minute of postponement, that’s just that many minutes less of play for that particular game. Bear in mind that lightning cells do move on and play can usually resume within a few minutes at the most.
No. Items that end up being left on the sidelines are usually carried to the sidewalk and placed close to where the League trailer is usually parked, then left there. However, water bottles are thrown away in the nearest trash can to where they were originally found.
It is understood that players may not be able to make each and every game during the summer months. There should be enough other players on your team to take up that slack.
Ultimate Frisbee
Ultimate is known for its "Spirit of the Game", often abbreviated SOTG. The following description is from the official ultimate rules established by the Ultimate Players Association:
"Ultimate has traditionally relied upon a spirit of sportsmanship which places the responsibility for fair play on the player. Highly competitive play is encouraged, but never at the expense of the bond of mutual respect between players, adherence to the agreed upon rules of the game, or the basic joy of play. Protection of these vital elements serves to eliminate adverse conduct from the Ultimate field. Such actions as taunting of opposing players, dangerous aggression, intentional fouling, or other 'win-at-all-costs' behavior are contrary to the spirit of the game and must be avoided by all players."
Many tournaments give awards for the most spirited team, as voted for by all the teams taking part in the tournament. This honor, sometimes called the Spirit Award, is highly regarded.
Ultimate Frisbee in 10 simple rules:
The Field -- A rectangular shape with endzones at each end. A regulation field is 70 yards by 40 yards, with endzones 25 yards deep.
Initiate Play -- Each point begins with both teams lining up on the front of their respective endzone line. The defense throws ("pulls") the disc to the offense. A regulation game has seven players per team.
Scoring -- Each time the offense completes a pass in the defense's endzone, the offense scores a point. Play is initiated after each score.
Movement of the Disc -- The disc may be advanced in any direction by completing a pass to a teammate. Players may not run with the disc. The person with the disc ("thrower") has ten seconds to throw the disc. The defender guarding the thrower ("marker") counts out the stall count.
Change of possession -- When a pass in not completed (e.g. out of bounds, drop, block, interception), the defense immediately takes possession of the disc and becomes the offense.
Substitutions -- Players not in the game may replace players in the game after a score and during an injury timeout.
Non-contact -- No physical contact is allowed between players. Picks and screens are also prohibited. A foul occurs when contact is made.
Fouls -- When a player initiates contact on another player a foul occurs. When a foul disrupts possession, the play resumes as if the possession was retained. If the player committing the foul disagrees with the foul call, the play is redone.
Self-Refereeing -- Players are responsible for their own foul and line calls. Players resolve their own disputes.
Spirit of the Game -- Ultimate stresses sportsmanship and fair play. Competitive play is encouraged, but never at the expense of respect between players, adherence to the rules, and the basic joy of play.
