  • (1) They submit a full roster of a minimum of 10 eligible players once waitlisted;
  • (2) 60% of the roster does not play in the current BIY league;
  • (3) 60% of the players are on the roster for the next league.
• There was one waitlisted team from our Winter Indoor BIY league. If they’ve retained the minimum 60% of their original roster for this league, they will gain automatic entry. The other teams would be entered into a lottery for the remaining 23 spots. If the waitlisted team does not meet the above requirements, all 24 teams spots will be up for grabs! We’ll be in touch with that Captain to confirm.

Deadline Extended: Parity League Registration Extended Until June 22nd

MZU was excited to launch our Summer Parity League, believing we’d be creating a fun social league for those members looking for another opportunity to play Ultimate! However, to our surprise, registration has been slow. We’re close to meeting our target registration numbers and aren’t willing to give up yet! New plan, we’re going to reduce the length of the league by 1 week, to allow us some more time to recruit potential players.

To reflect this change, we’re also reducing the cost of the league to $25. Anyone who has already paid will receive a $5 refund within the next week or so.

Registration will now close at midnight on June 22nd, 2016.

League games will now start on June 27th, 2016. Playoff will still occur on August 1st, 2016.

For more information on our Parity League, go here.

June 9 Games Postponed: City Fields Closed Due To Weather

The City has closed the fields for today. All games on Thursday, June 9 are postponed, we’ll be in touch about rescheduling. Please share with your teams and captains. Also, in the event it clears up, this still means you cannot practice or scrimmage on the fields. They are closed to all.

Summer Starts Now!

Summer leagues start on Tuesday June 7th.

We’ve got a quick refresher on the rules that differ between our indoor and outdoor leagues. Keep an eye out for more rules posts throughout the summer.

MZU Summer Parity League 2016 Registration Information

During our Year Plan Meeting back in February we announced changing up part of our summer offering to something a little different. At UCC’s we become more familiar with a parity league and thought our members would love it. So it’s time to open registration and run this new league. For info about our upcoming Parity League check out this page.

The key points are:

Registration will open Thursday, June 2nd at noon. There is limited space, so we expect it to fill up quickly. We will close registration June 16th at Midnight. Solo signup, $30 per player.

The league will run Monday evenings June 20th to August 1st at Southlands.

We will need 6 Captains to volunteer to be team managers as well as players. These are people who can be somewhat active on email to trade players and fulfill the parity requirement of the league.

We will be tracking stats and there will be either a fundraising or money making opportunity. We’ll have more details on that once we have an idea on registration.

Parity League, living the fantasy.
