London Ultimate

[LWLC]

It seems that we're not all aware of ways to find additional players, or for 'surplus' players to find other teams.

Here's a few suggestions (Please feel free to forward to your team):

Starting to look for additional players/a team should ideally happen more than a day before the event - probably as far in advance as 2 weeks.

Contact the organisers of other teams direct:
~ The Regional Ultimate (aka Ladder Leagues) website (http://www.regionalultimate.co.uk) has a gadget that allows you to message team contacts from the website;
~ The [lwl-contacts] yahoogroup (only available to subscribed members) has contact details for LWL team contacts in the Database section.

Broadcast to a (mostly) London audience...
~ join the [londonleague] yahoogroup (http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/londonleague/) and send an appropriate email;
~ join the London Ultimate Forum (http://www.londonultimate.com/forum) check and post in the appropriate forum:
'Players Wanted' (http://londonultimate.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=4)
'Players Available' (http://londonultimate.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=3) .

Broadcast to a wider audience...
~ join the national [BritDisc] mailing list (http://fysh.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/britdisc) and send an appropriate email

There are also, of course, other lists for demographic groups of players within Ultimate (see http://www.ukultimate.com/staying-informed) that may also be of use to you.

Please note that many of the mailing lists/forums detailed above are accessible to the public - please post safely and responsibly!
