The Future of Ultimate and the UPA
are on the table.
Are you in?
Do you have opinions about these questions?
Should we have refs in Ultimate?
Should the UPA be spending dollars getting Ultimate on TV or on growing Youth/grassroots Ultimate?
How should we be promoting and enforcing Spirit of the Game at all levels of play?
Should we be spending resources to partner with local leagues?
Should the Championship Series be restructured? If so, how?
Should teams from other countries (like Canada) be allowed to play in UPA events?
If you want your voice heard, then reserve your spot at the Minneapolis Ultimate Revolution Summit.
Where: Schwan Center
at the National Sports Center
1700 105th Ave NE
Blaine, MN 55449
Directions to the National Sport Center
Who: Anyone and everyone who cares about the sport of Ultimate and where its going. You don't need to be a member of the UPA, and you don't even need to play -- you just need a passion for the sport and time to share your ideas. Whether you play league, pick-up or the UPA Series; coach, cheer or organize, we want to see you there!
When: Saturday
June 30, 2007, 10 am - 4 pm, lunch will be served at midday, with root beer floats and a field reserved for some friendly competition when we're through with the hard work of planning the future of Ultimate.
Please click here to register so we can order refreshments for you, and plan for your active participation in break-out sessions.
How are we going to do this: After 9 months of gathering over 7000 responses from a diverse cross section of the Ultimate community, we are ready to make some big decisions. Up to 150 people will come together at each of four Regional Summits to take part in
5 hours of challenging work, supported by professionals to ensure efficiency and productivity.
Then what? The output of each Summit will eventually become the heart of the strategic plan that will drive UPA policy for the next 5 years.
What do you give and what do you get?
You give your time and opinions. Aside from a chance to get your voice heard, you'll get food and beverage, and the chance to enter the awesome Ultimate Revolution drawing.
