Who's in for backstreet? If I get a sufficient head count by noon
today, I'll front the deposit.
Speaking of money, Pat is the only piner thus far to cough up moola
for the sectionals money fiasco thingy...

Hi Tab and Nick,

I know both of you expressed an interest in bringing a team to the
tourney, so just wanted to send along a quick reminder that the $50
bid is due by 10/15, with the rest of the $200 due by 10/31.  We have
four confirmed teams, and you all would make six….we'd love to see you
guys! however, if you are NOT planning to come, please let me know.
Thanks!

I am in. It's a great tourney. Come on folks, let's do it!

(I pasted in the details at the end of this email in case anyone's misplaced them -- Nov 5-6, pasta dinner friday night, bbq with veggie option after games on saturday, kegs and music saturday night, beautiful fields, usually they play music on big speakers while we play, waterfront several blocks away, beach a few miles away.)

-- Pat

Details in case you've misplaced them:
> Backstreet Invitational ... November 5-6, 2011, to be held at the same great fields (Freedom Park) in Beaufort, NC. As in the past, we're planning to have our catered pigpickin' from Roland's Barbecue (w/veggie options) on Saturday evening, plus some great music at the Backstreet Pub (our major sponsor) afterwards. The registration fee covers the grub and some brew Saturday night, team goody box during the day, and pizzas on the fields Sunday. We also usually have a pasta dinner of sorts on Friday evening for folks in town.
>
> Format: 5/2 or 4/3, offense dictates; 8 mixed teams
> Registration: $250 per team
> Deposit: $50 due by 10/15/2011 (full fee due by 10/31/2011)
> **Early bird registration discount of $25 if your team is registered by 9/30/2011**
> (checks can be made to Lookout Ultimate and sent to 603 Mandy Ct, Morehead City, NC 28557)
>
> A couple things new for this year:
>
> 1) Pig on the fields: Instead of having the Saturday night pigpickin' at the pub, we're going to have it delivered to the fields this year -- that way, folks can fuel up as soon as play is over for the day, without having to hang around until we get things set up at the pub. Logistically, we figured this would work better -- folks w/kids aren't waiting around for food, and everyone will have a bit more time to clean up (if they want) before heading to the pub for beer and tunes.
>
> 2) Lodging option: The Hampton Inn & Suites in Atlantic Beach asked if they could set aside a block of rooms for tourney participants (!!!!). These are suites with 2 queen size beds, plus a living area w/pullout sofa and a kitchenette, continental breakfast in the lobby, etc. They are holding a block of 15 rooms for the rate of $72/night plus tax. Not bad if you stuff 6 people in the room. Please call 252-247-5118 and ask for the rooms in the "Lookout Ultimate" block if interested.

Oh, and in the interest of cohesiveness and playing time for everyone,
let's not bring in a bunch of random pickups this year, ok? Veteran
NP'ers are in (Tommy, Val, Diana?), as are new ones that have attended
practices this fall. But no one-night stands.

Trivia: There was a team from DC at Backstreet in 2008 or 2009 called something like "The Easy Pickups" only more blatant.

It was a team of mostly women players who couldn't find enough guys to drive down to play in the tourney that weekend, which was the same weekend as men's regionals, I think. They got the Beaufort folks to round them up some young men to fill out their squad and used their team name as a kind of advertising ... or at least that was how a friend of mine on the team explained it.
