Already knowing that the Mid-Atlantic region will send three teams from the Mixed division to Nationals this coming October, we have a golden opportunity to send a coed team from the Triangle to The Show. As we have the past 2 years, we will once again be holding tryouts to form 2 teams this year. As a new wrinkle this year following tryouts, we will be combining the two teams to practice together until at least mid-August, so as to bolster numbers and provide better development of each team's players.
To register for tryouts, please sign up at the following site: http://trianglecoed.hsfl.net/
News specific to Triangle Coed will be sent via the Google group we've set up (many of you are already on it). At the end of the tryout signup, you will be directed to the group's signup page, or later you can simply send an e-mail to "trianglecoed-subscribe at googlegroups.com". That's where you'll find out about pickup games that we host, workouts that folks are doing to get ready for tryouts, and tryouts themselves.
Additionally, we will be forming two teams for the upcoming Kudzu coed tournament held here in Raleigh on Memorial Day weekend. Anyone who is planning to attend our tryouts is welcome to send an e-mail to me, and I will put you on the list. Due to the possibility that more would like to play than there are spots available, we will solidify the rosters for both teams on the Wednesday after college regionals (April 29). We will not weight either team in particular.
Triangle coed's tentative schedule:
June 6/7 - Combined tryout 1 & 2
June 10 - Combined tryout 3
June 13/14 - Combined tryout 4 & 5 (roster for Olio is set)
June 17 - Olio's First Practice
June 18 - Flight tryout #1
June 21 - Flight tryout #2/Olio second practice
The Summer League tournament may cause an adjustment of the dates, depending on when it's held.
Tournaments:
Philly Invite - July 18/19
Asheville - August 1/2
Glazed Daze - August 15/16
Chesapeake Open - August 29/30
Heavyweights - First weekend of Sept
Sectionals - mid-Sept
Regionals - First weekend of Oct
Nationals - Last weekend of Oct
We will go to either Asheville or Heavyweights, but not both.
There will be one more terse announcement to the TFDA list before we get underway, but you're better off to go ahead and join the trianglecoed group if you intend to tryout for coed this year. If this e-mail hasn't pre-emptively answered your question(s), please reply and I'll get back to you ASAP.
Hope to see you out there soon...
