EUCF 2010 Lloret de Mar: INFOS

Dear European Ultimate Frisbee Community,

We are proud to organize the EUCF 2010 in Lloret de Mar (Girona, Spain), October 1st to 3rd.
In this message you'll find some of the main informations, you can find further details at the website www.eucf2010.com, which is permanently updated.


REGISTRATION PROCESS:

We've actived the account registration(at)eucf2010.com, so all the qualified teams can book their accommodation, send their questions or simply tell any detail to Lluís Jackle, who's taking care of this area.


TEAM, PLAYER AND GUEST FEES:

You'll find all the information at http://www.eucf2010.com/index.php/fees
Please note that you have to save the spot by sending both Team Fee and Player fee before September, 12th (minimum 10 players).


VOLUNTEERS:

If any of you is interested in coming to the EUCF 2010 and being part of the Staff, please, fill this questionary at the website:
http://www.eucf2010.com/index.php/volunteers
You'll get free accommodation and the Staff Gaia T-shirt (official equipment provider).


Just some other quick information points:

Blanes or Lloret? :-) The Sports Complex is placed in the Blanes area, but the official village will be Lloret de Mar instead of Blanes after an agreement we reached with Lloret, that gives us support like lending the Stadium for the event and plus, it's where we set the Hotel accommodation and other things.

There was a misunderstanding with Helsinki Women Ultimate Team, it is confirmed that they are NOT coming to the EUCF 2010, due to our own webmaster mistake and it is already corrected in the website. It is Cosmic Girls, who came 1st on EUCR-NE who's coming.

Fees have been set the lowest possible, without taking any personal profit. One of the main reasons of the expense is due to the fact that the Sports Complex belongs to a private company and we will have to pay for them (the fares were VERY expensive, but we managed to lower it a 50% by sponsoring), it is really hard in Spain to find 8 football high-quality grass fields together without paying. However, there's many nice things in Spain that you'll get on the other hand, we'll fight for the best quality tournament.


Thanks a lot for letting us organize in Spain, that helps the development of our loved sport here.
Best regards,

--

Update on European Ultimate Championships 2011

Hi

 

Here is an update about European Ultimate Championships 2011.  The position is not ideal, but we wanted to provide information to help people with their planning for next year.

 

Firstly - following the international events this summer - and in particular the World Junior Ultimate Championships - we are now working on the basis that our preference is for running the four JUNIOR divisions at a separate event.  The EUF Junior Committee are working on some options for that event now.  We are not in position to confirm the likely venue or date quite yet but we can say that:

1. we are planning to make sure it does NOT clash with EUC, and

2. we are trying to put the event in central/eastern Europe

 

With that in mind, here is the current situation with EUC:

 

1. We are working on the basis that the EUC event will take place from Sat 30 July to Sat 6 Aug.

 

2. We are working with a "lead bid" in Ireland.  However, they are still resolving a number of questions and so we are not yet able to award the event.  I am hopeful we will have a much clearer picture of this by the end of September.

 

3. Since we do not know if all of those questions will be resolved positively we want to make this known to the European Ultimate community in case anyone else feels they would like to put themselves forwards.  Its worth noting that with the Junior divisions at a different location/time it should now be possible to run EUC with around 12 fields.  If you think you have a viable venue and would like to discuss things further, please get in touch.  Please note that we are very much want to stick to the dates noted above: i.e. 30 July - 6 August. 

 

Wish it was better news – but we’re working on sorting it out asap.

a new beach event in Italy ...


hey Ultimate world ...  SPECIALY JUNIOR
a new Italian appointment has been added on 'ffindr site' ... for June 2011 ;-)
 
 
BEACH ULTIMATE IN ITALY JUST GOT BETTER!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
a new, fantastic beach event on the way in 2011… The “MARINO the OCTOPUS” Trophy, in CAORLE, in sunny Italy.
 
Yep, that’s right: a brand-new event in a brand-new new location, and a brand-new… Octopus. A perfect site by the sea, and a perfect time of year for the beach, is now awaiting you: a natural beach that’s open to all, full board and lodging right by the sea and right by the fields (50 mt away), in rooms sleeping between 1 and 6 (you choose), with on-site, top-class kitchens catering for breakfast, lunch and dinner. All this in a lovely little old town, with those picturesque buildings all painted in different colours (in that famous Veneto tradition)… From 02 to 05 June, 2011.

Categories: JUNIOR , WOMEN & OPEN and MASTER :-)

More information over the next couple of months, but, we mean it when we say don’t make any plans for that 'Public holiday period' that do not involve CAORLE…!

Frisbee tournament rating brainstorming

Hi Europe,



every year there are more than 500 Frisbee tournaments are happening in Europe (counting only those put on FFindr: http://ffindr.com/en/calendar/europe), and very often on popular spring/summer/autumn weekends... a popular question is: how to chose the right one? Several FFindr users approached me with the idea to establish a tournament rating on FFindr, and now is the time to get things rolling.

Before implementing the feature I would like to ask the community WHAT exactly the key factors are to determine a good Frisbee tournament. Here is what I have so far, feel free to complete the list or to add your ideas.

- 5 categories with scores from 1 to 5 (plus "no rating")
- a global score, averaging the 5 categories
- being able to comment the rating

The key factors so far, no grouping for categories yet:

- field and changing room quality
- competition aspects (schedule, seeding, system)
- transportation
- accommodation
- feel good factor
- friendliness of organisation
- party and entertainment
- food
- price/performance ratio



Thanks for your feedback (please send to contact <at> ffindr.com) and have a nice day,
Christian


P.S. Any other good (or bad, you never know) idea is also welcome...
