Just wanted to send out an update on the events coming up during the rest of October. Please read all of this news post. If you don't, I hate you (JK, I love you) (JK, I hate you).

October 11th: We are having a Field Day with Volleyball on Erickson Field starting at 1PM and ending at 6PM. This will be going on despite the rain situation that has plagued Maryland this week. I know all of you are available for practice, so it would be great to see you there as well. It will constitute of fun ultimate and volleyball related games and activities. So much room for activities!

October 12th: There will be a UMBC Alumni vs. Current ultimate game at 1PM on Field 1 (West of the stadium, next to the baseball field). This is a great opportunity to meet and play against the individuals that shaped Booya into what it is now (a team that cheers "ballsack"). There's a chance rain could cause this game to be delayed so keep up to date on your emails as a message will be sent out prior to 11 AM with a status on any cancellations.

October 22nd: As opposed to having our regularly scheduled practice on Tuesday, October 22nd, we'll be heading up to Towson University to scrimmage against our friendly neighbors. We will be leaving at 8PM and getting back around midnight. I hope to see everyone that regularly attends Tuesday night practices to come out for this game. Should be a great night.

October 26th/27th: Our final tournament of the Fall season will be the weekend of the 26th. The tournament is titled Hucks Off The Hilltop and is hosted in Virginia. This tournament is a tad more competitive so we hope to be making a roster of wonderful faces that want to score some points. I need everyone to post whether they are able to attend or not on the Events page of the myUMBC group and if you can drive. I'll be making a roster in a little over one week. If you have not signed up by then, you will be getting a lot of studying done that weekend.

High Tide: I want to send out a minor notification regarding a tournament we attend over Spring Break every year. The team gets a number of cars together every break to drive down to Southern Georgia and play in a very fun tournament called High Tide. We rent a house and have a merry old time playing flatball and sitting on couches. This is a very popular tournament, but the roster can only constitute of about 20 people. That should not cause you to sign up for it! If you do not have anything going on that week, I would highly suggest you consider coming with us to this great vacation. Just mark it on your calendars for now.

That about does it for October events. Thanks for sticking with me to the end and I'll be sure to send out details regarding the Hucks tournament soon. Thanks and see you soon!
