I agree that there may be too much pressure on uni teams to play both weekends and weekdays but surely the only way to find out who is hardcore enough to take on the challenge is give it a try? I mean most uni teams have practices at the weekend anyway and get a decent number of people turn up it would make no difference to me to have a ladder league event against an open team on say a Saturday rather than a practice, I mean the only way to get better really is play in proper games against people who are better than you...
I'm not sure whether I'm just talking for myself here but I would be more than happy to be playing two proper games of ultimate a week if needs be one Wednesday afternoon one Saturday...
Hi folks, There is talk currently going on about the possibility of allowing club teams (non-university) to compete in regional Ladder Leagues alongside...
Hi SEUU, My first thoughts on the subject go something like this: "More teams=more competition" Crucially, this will increase the amount of local competition...
Thort i mite as well put my 2 cents in. Fraid they aint as positive as manny was. With most open teams playing in the high standard open tours and london...
I'm agreeing with some of Shimmy's points I think. I think that if more teams were encorporated then it could make a weekend/weekday divide. Personally I...

Hey all, great to see the discussion kicking off, please keep it up and if you have anything to add to anyones points or disagree with what's being said then...
For what it's worth I agree with Shim. I don't think there would be much of an uptake from open teams to play in ladder league with the well established LWL...
Just my two cents... as a UCL player who perhaps play more open ultimate than most Uni teams, it doesn't make much sense to me to allow open teams to play in...
... The LL concentrates on the Autumn and Spring terms, when all the open teams have are four LWL events. The LWL is changing rapidly and will soon limit...

I would say that's a better idea, having different tables. There are a few things I'd like to clear up about the current rules though if this does take effect:...
Hey Pugh thanks for your well thought out comments. 1. Yep I've been considering this, but it is still a fact that plenty of uni teams have a non-university...
Can we not just have uni and open seperate? this way uni teams can still play open if they choose to. This might result in alot of the better uni first teams...
... First off, although looking to the future of ladder league is incredible and something we'll need to do before another region overtakes us for coolness, ...
