CUC 2007 SOCIAL EVENTS - THURSDAY

Had nothing but bagels, bananas and water all day?  Feel like your body is starting to digest itself?  When you reach that point, and your hallucinations are distracting your game, as your teammates start to look like running roasted chickens, come and cure your hunger with a free dinner.

Stick around and socialize.  There’s plenty of entertainment.  We’ve got a cups tournament and a skills competition, just in case you haven’t shaken the competition out of your system after day 1. 

On-field Dinner

Cups Tournament

When: 7:30pm – 9:00pm
Where: Field 16 (TBC)
What:

Bring a Disc and a Friend!

Toronto's cups tournament master crafter Derek Sigurdson will be running our cups tournament this year.  No need to pre-register, just come as a pair and bring your own disc and you'll be entered to play within a minute of signing up. 

The tournament will consist of pools of 4, where new teams are allocated to the most recently added pool, and these teams all play each other.  Pool champs move on to the playoff bracket, and can start playing as soon as there's another pool champ to play against.  Teams eliminated in pool play can re-enter if they wish.  If you're new to cups, or just need a re-fresher, click HERE for cups rules.
