2024 Summer Thursday Dayton League


Description

Greetings! Our Annual Summer League will be played on Thursday evenings from 6:30 - 8:45PM (or dusk), at Oak Grove Park in Centerville (see park map below). League will run from June 13 - August 8. **IMPORTANT: the July 4 week of league will be on TUESDAY JULY 2. This is the only week the schedule is changed.** All requests for pairings need to be noted in the registration process. We do our best to honor pairing requests, but cannot guarantee them. Pairings must be requested by all parties. 

All payments must be collected online before the first games. We will no longer be allowing players to not pay before leagues start as our registration now requires payments to complete registration. 

The first week will be a "hat tournament" style of play. Captains will be evaluating players and then draft respective teams prior to the second week of league. The last week will be the "playoffs" and will determine the winning team. 

We are currently still evaluating options for a session tournament. The projected date for this "tournament" would be on Saturday 8/3. It would consist of 2 or 3 games, played back-to-back. Start time would be in the morning (9 or 10ish) and run until early afternoon (2ish). Please confirm on the registration questions if you would be interested in this. This is still TBD depending on interest, as we've struggled in the past for numbers. 

Cost for playing inlcudes a team shirt, 9 (possibly 10) days of play, and an end-of-season pizza party!

Cincinnati Ultimate has adjusted to a 3-tier payment structure. The 2nd tier (in this case, $80) is the basic league fee. The 3rd tier is available for any participant who wishes to contribute extra funds to support those who are unable to pay the full fee. The 1st fee is available for anyone who needs a smaller fee for their own financial needs. 

Why are prices higher?
