Thursday Ultimate Draft & Draught

Draft

Want to feel like a superstar and see your name in lights? Don’t really care about that, but simply want to play 5-on-5 Ultimate on Thursdays? You’ve ALL come to the right place!

What: A fun night of making teams for the Thursday 5-on-5 League.
When: Thursday, May 30th
Where: TBD (Mexis or Wilser’s)
Why: It’s fun. It’s different. It’s (relatively) fair and balanced.
How: Register here and RSVP to the Facebook Event.

Do you intend on playing in both the 7-on-7 Tuesday and the 5-on-5 Thursday leagues? EMAIL US for your special discount code that makes both nights ONLY $100!

How will the night work?
- captains have been pre-selected and will roshambo to determine the order of selecting,
- each will take turns selecting their picks from a list of players with detailed player stats,
- as a captain makes the pick, they will approach the commissioner who will announce “Team So-And-So selects Jane Doe
- the Facebook Event will be updated with each draft pick (live for the world to see) as well as an in-house projection screen showing rosters as they are made.
* Once finished, captains will then be able to trade players on their own.

Don’t miss out. Thursday 5-on-5 League registration closes on MONDAY, MAY 27TH!

We’re considering running a Spring Ultimate League for the first time ever! The league could potentially run from April 2 – June 4 OR April 22 – June 4 depending on interest and desired format.

This could be very different from other leagues and is why WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK to make it happen.

Ultimate is coming to Oromocto and Base Gagetown this year! Will existing league players participate? Will games be played with Fredericton teams? WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK

SURF & TURF ULTIMATE
Seasonal sand courts MAY be built at the Exhibition Grounds on Smythe Street. We are considering moving our 5on5 Wednesday night league to the Raceway/Exhibition Grounds and having each team play a 5on5 sand and 5on5 grass game every week. It’s then a short walk to Winner’s for post-game beverages!

WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK
