Update 9/14/2008
Updates have been made to the Tournaments and Resources page.
This past weekend, PHUEL captains met for the Fall Organizational and scheduling meeting, an overview of the
meeting can be found here. Captains who were unable to attend should feel
free to contact teams through the league email, and are greatly encouraged to use the Forum to try to arrange
games.
The biggest points from the meeting were encouraging DEVYL, changes in player fees starting in the spring, and
date for States (Most likely Memorial Day weekend). Please check the agenda and email any questions to me.
All players are also greatly encouraged to sign up for DEVYL, the Youth Club league for the Philadelphia and
surrounding areas. Information on the league can be found at
http://scorereport.net/ultimate/devyl08/instructions.html. If any player, male or female, intends on trying out
for the Open or Mixed Youth Club Championship team, they must participate in DEVYL. For more information, check
out the website.
With tournaments in mind, tryouts for the 2009 Paganello World Beach Ultimate cup will be held at Cardinal O'Hara
High School at 11:00 am on Sunday September 21st. Anyone who will not be 21 by August 2009 is eligible to play

PHUEL players are encouraged to tryout. Cost is to be determined. Contact tomcook AT cooksclassroom DOT com for more.
