Hello!
Matt Newberg has volunteered to secure a site at the Hyde School in Bath, Maine,
for a possible second UPA Coaching Clinic late this Fall so interested Youth
Ultimate coaches can get UPA Level I certified. HOWEVER WE NEED A MINIMUM OF 8
COACHES TO
ATTEND IN ORDER FOR THIS TO HAPPEN. Mark Robinson, Adrian, and Pozzy can
probably attest that this is well worth the money spent since Josh Seamon puts
on an excellent clinic. Josh is the St. Johnsbury Varsity boys and girls coach,
is the New
England Youth Championship coordinator, and is on the UPA Board of Directors.
Cost around $75 but this time around we have money from Maine Youth Ultimate
that can cost share some of that.

PLEASE REPLY TO ME INDIVIDUALLY (NOT REPLY ALL) WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING DATES YOU
CAN COMMIT TO AND HOW CERTAIN YOU WILL BE THERE. If we get a good solid 8-12
commitments, we will be inclined to book this thing...else, no.

Recall that as your teams start traveling to out-of-state tourneys like many of
them already have over the years...many tourneys look favorably on coaching
certification. Having gone through this when Pozzy organized the first one in
March of 2007,
it is well worth your time since coaching clinics in a lot of places not in the
big cities are on two year cycles! Also, even though you may only have very
limited experiences with coaching / advising youth ultimate, there are many
things that are
covered in the clinic that are transferable to college and club teams.

Also, please forward this e-mail to interested parties and list servers... we
have probably left out a bunch of folks to let know about this but this list was
put together hastily to get a sense if the interest is still there based on
verbals at
States this past spring.. Thanks!

Also, if these dates are not good, please say so... these are the only dates in
the late fall that do not fall on major holidays. Dates are all Sundays:
>11/15
>11/22
>12/6
