Subject: UPA 2008 College Series Roster Info

(Sorry if you get this email more than once... My work email account isn't cooperating, so I'm using gmail instead)

Captains,

Hopefully all of your teams have started completing the roster for the College Series. I will be sending out a separate email shortly with tournament details.

Visit: http://www.upa.org/college/rostering_101 for detailed info about rostering. The process has changed this year, so you'll probably want to look at it even if you've done this for a few years.

Summary of the main difference: There is no longer a late registration deadline. Now there are still 2 key dates regarding rostering to be aware of, and of course you'll want to remember the tournament dates:

1. March 21st (5pm MT): 2008 College Registration Deadline
   • All teams must have a valid team roster, of at least 7 players, registerd by this date.
2. April 4th (5pm MT):  Finalized roster deadline.
3. April 12-13: West Plains Sectionals - Ames, IA

IMPORTANT: Don't sweat it if you can't get everyone on your rosters by March 21st. As long as you have 7 players registered by March 21st, you're allowed to make as many additions to your rosters as you want by April 4th. I would also like to clarify that this is the Open division and you cannot be registered for an Open and a Women's team during the Series for the few of you that this may apply too.

I was planning to write a little outline to submit your roster, but the UPA's directions more than suffice. Again, you can find those directions here: http://www.upa.org/college/rostering_101 . I would like all teams to have a roster in the mail by March 11th, or before your spring break (which ever date comes first). Many teams in the past have waited until spring break to do this and discovered they couldn't get their teammates' info on time. I will send you weekly reminders until the deadline.

If you have not done so yet, please email me along with the following info:

1. Current contact info for your team.
2. Do you plan to attend Sectionals this year?
3. If yes, do you plan on bringing a B team?

I have had confirmations from the following teams:

1. South Dakota State
2. Iowa
3. Iowa State
4. Iowa State B
5. Cornell College
6. Nebraska - Omaha

I am expecting to hear from Luther, Luther B, UNI, Maharishi, Nebraska, and Grinnell. Please respond ASAP. If you are not the contact anymore, please try to point me in the right direction.

Email me with questions.
