ADBUC goes MIXED

It is official - for 2010 the ADBUC will be a mixed tourney. Offence decides the ratio - the rule is that both sexes must be represented on the field in all points.

The committee has decided to run one more year of mixed to encourage league teams and interstate teams to join us on our lovely sandy beaches in SE QLD. We do see Open and Women's Divisions being the future of this tournament and perhaps one day all 3 divisions playing.

So talk to your league team mates, your ultimate work mates or even an old foe... get you team together because REGO will be open on Friday 18 December and teams will be LIMITED

BUS Round 1 - Noosa

Hey die hard beach lovers,

Sunday - 22/11 is almost here.

What: The beach, a disc and some fun.... we will enjoy ourselves no matter how many people show... so let's do it. Plus i think my family will join in... and that's possibility 10 people right there.

Where: Noosa main beach - down the river month end (NE/NW wind forecast so if smoke is a hazard or wind is too strong we MAY move to sunshine beach on the southern side of Noosa Heads - 10 mins drive) but we will still meet at Noosa Main beach ie first option.
