RE: [TXUltimate] Age requirements challenged...

GEt you team ready. The DFW area will host a league
from January to March, in preparation for a STATE
tournament in April.


Let's pick a date and get a fall tournament together!
Will Keller HOST?

We will run the tournament if someone will host.
Pick a Saturday! If we cannot get school teams
there, we can at least play in a hat format.

The goal this fall is to build for the winter
league---THANK YOU, RB.

peace,
bubba
