Summer Leage Draft

BUDA PLAYERS:

Summer League Signups are officially over! Please do not sign up on the late signup link past this point - it will simply be a difficult process of trying to get you your money back, since the draft lists have already been sent to captains. :-D

TONIGHT is the Summer League Draft.

Players my show up at Zydeco AFTER 9:00 PM. Please do not show up before 9:00 PM. You will most likely be sent away.

Come to Zydeco After 9:00 PM tonight to find out which team you're on and meet your captains and teammates!


If you need directions to Zydeco, go to their website: http://www.zydecobirmingham.com/


See you all after 9:00!

All You Late Folks.

Folks,

If you forgot to sign up for summer league, this is your last chance.

Email Cory Casella at Ccasella3@gmail.com if you need to sign up late, and he will respond with a link where you can sign up late. You will need to sign up BY FRIDAY if you want to play. That means contacting Cory by Friday morning at the latest. If you miss this one...there's always church softball or bingo or kickball or shuffleboard or something. But not BUDA ultimate.

Ccasella3@gmail.com by Friday morning. Thank him for his patience. He has a broken hand, and is one-handedly emailing back all you stragglers with the password.


Thanks!

-Mad Megan Roth

Brian Yamane

Brian Yamane was a regular open-player, winter-leaguer, and summer-leaguer. His fun-loving attitude and sense of humor added so much to the BUDA community. Brian passed away last week, and he will be missed dearly by all who shared the field with him.

A link to his obituary can be found here: http://obits.al.com/birmingham/DeathNotices.asp?Page=Notice&PersonID=108380990










































From the BUDA listserv:

Jay Pigford: Brian was the guy who, on the pull, would run down the field yelling
"FIRE!!" much like William Wallace would have if he had played ultimate. It
definitely brought a smile to my face everytime, no matter how bad we were
getting beaten.....great guy who'll be missed.

Steve Millburg: Brian played summer and winter league the past year or
two. Most recently, he was on Karen Balliet and Will
Marble's purple team this past winter league. He was
a fun, energetic guy. I remember him yelling all the
way down the field on each pull.



If you have pictures or memories of Brian that you would like to have posted here, please comment below or email your photos to meroth3@gmail.com
