Similar to Tanner, while in school, I had no idea there was a league of people volunteering to maintain courses. I think I just assumed City employees took care of everything. I was introduced to the game at Tourist, and didn't really have a clue what was going on, or that there was anything organized ie) league nights/tournaments. But, a group of us played almost everyday and could have easily pitched in.
UNI could be a huge labor/funding resource up there(I live in DSM now), not sure the most effective way to get the word out to students, but I think would be worth the effort...Intramural leagues, fliers at tourist or dorms, student email list, tie in to Phys Ed/Wellness credit requirements somehow, New beginner only singles league at tourist?
Good luck, I too look forward to your events and appreciate your work. _________________ Calmer than you are. |

Great suggestions and positive feedback that the League could use. We just started out as a bunch of people who liked playing disc and I think over the last 25 years the League has made a positive impact on the sport, our cities and the state. We have an unique format and don't necessarily look to expand past our normal 12-16 teams so no effort has been made to promote the League to UNI students (short sighted I know but still that's what's happened).
Thanks for your input. |

Just wanted to post and say Thanks for all the hard work that master Lee and the others in this group do.
And although I have lived in Decorah, Iowa City, and now the Twin Cities I have always tried to make it to Hickory Hill Doubles or the Waterloo Open each year, because these have been such fun tourneys (I grew up in Waverly). So I have all the respect for the BHMDG (and I still use their logo minis as my markers).
As for other league suggestions, I really liked how Bushwackers in IC runs their league... their is random draw for your partner (which being newer to the area I really liked), and I ended up playing with Tim Payton -- which turned out to be are great experience for me, and had a lot of fun. Also there is a vote at the end of the year to pick next years Pres/VP/Sec.
I also like the idea of a UNI league, where students get together to play -- something similar to what Iowa has. |
