Registration for BUDA end-of-the-season tournaments is open. Div 1
and Girls teams must all submit rosters to the appropriate tournament
with the UPA. Assuming you have already submitted a roster for the
league, you may contact the UPA and ask them to copy the roster over
to the appropriate tournament list. I suggest you should get your
roster in order first, though, to avoid having to edit two rosters
later. Deadline for having all rosters submitted and complete is May
23. No paperwork will be accepted at the field the day of the tournament.

Div 1:
Devens, June 8. Register with the following UPA-sponsored event:
"2008H MA State High School Open" 16 teams, fee $75

Girls:
Devens, June 8. Register with the following UPA-sponsored event:
"2008H MA State High School Girls" Up to 10 teams, fee $75

After you have done this, please send an e-mail to Catherine Greenwald
(ckgreenwald@...) to notify her that you are submitting a
"bid" for the event. The top 16 open and 10 girl's teams will be
accepted, based on record over the season. Tournament fees will be
collected the day of the tournament.

Div 2:
North/Central Region Championships, Mitre Fields in Burlington, May 24.
South/Western Region Championships, Mitre Fields in Burlington, May 25.

For both tournaments, first be sure your roster with the UPA for the
BUDA league is complete (see "registration instructions" at right if
you are not clear about this). Note that team members that paid the
one-time fee do not have to pay again.

Once you you are square with the UPA, please contact the following:
May 24: Brian Buck, bbuck@...
May 25: Jim Pistrang, jim@...
12 teams accepted for each day, first-come, first served with
complete rosters. The tournaments will close on Tuesday, May 21. In
the event one day is oversubscribed priority will be given to teams
that complied with the April 7 roster deadline. The fee for the
tournament is $35. You can expect to play 3-4 games over the course
of the day.
