dude. this is ultimate. You'll have to wait another 4 months for
that info.
Well, for sectionals/regionals it depends on what section/region
you're in. If I had to guess the date of natties, I'd guess October
23-26 just based on when it was last year. But again, you'll know for
sure in ~4 months.
This has been one of my beefs with UPA for a long while. Not all of us
are college students or have jobs that accommodate leaving on a whim.
Why can't the UPA select locations and dates for all club Sectionals
and Regionals prior to the college season ?

Actually, it sucks for college students, too, especially if you go to
school in another region from the one you play club in.
Because most field sites wont let you reserve fields in January for a
tournament in September or October. I've given up trying much before
July. Usually they tell you to call back in the middle of August when
booking for sectionals. The soccer/football/baseball/rugby/lacrosse/
yahtzee schedules have to be set before the parks/recs department will
even think about renting the fields to outside parties. Trust me,
I've tried. Maybe you'll have better luck running your sectional
tournament.
Usual times for tournaments:
Nationals: last weekend in October (23-26th, this year)
Regionals: first two weekends in October (4-5th and 11-12th, this
year)
Sectionals: last three weekends in September (13-14th, 20-21st,
27-28th this year)
Sectionals are still 4 months away. Does your boss really need a firm
date 120 days in advance? Tell him you'll need one of the last three
weekends in September off. Email your SC and ask if there is a date
he is leaning towards. Usually I know which date I'm shooting for
before I have the field location determined due to talking to the
captains and
