Tired of having the High School Ultimate season end before you are ready to hang up your cleats for the season? Well, Good News!!

The Portland Ultimate High School Summer League is intended toprovide an opportunity for High School students to play ultimate in the summer months (beyond the traditional Spring High School season) and thereby encourage growth of the sport in the Greater Portland area.

The league will be a coed "club" league where existing High School teams will be able to continue to play with players from their own High School. We expect at least four and possibly six teams this season. A minimum on-field ratio of 6 (boys) to 1 (girl) will be required.  Eventually we will strive for a 5:2 or 4:3 ratio.

All League games will be played Monday nights at 6pm for 8 weeks at the Cumberland Fairgrounds in Cumberland, Maine, starting on June 8th and ending on July 27, 2009. All games will take place on 2-3 adjacent fields at the Fairgrounds. The High School Summer League will be on a separate night from the adult Portland Summer League (PSL) so that High School players may participate in both leagues they desire.

Each team can be either student or coach-led or some combination of the two. Either way, the league will be sanctioned by the UltimatePlayers Association (UPA) and as a result, UPA membership and chaperones will be required. A desirable roster size is 16-18 players per team. Since there will be some High Schools that are not able to field a full roster, some teams will be composed of a combination of players from various High Schools.

The league will be open to all High School students, including incoming freshmen and out-going seniors. The cost will be $25 per player (not including UPA registration). Each player will receive a tee-shirt and there will be an end of the season cook out and playoffs.

Have fun, meet new people, improve your game, show off your skills. Don't let your season end in May.
