­­­­­­­Ultimate Frisbee Proposal – ACCEPTED

Request for Discretionary Funds

Prepared by: Rose Thomson

Budget Breakdown:Ìý Total Request: $1350.00

45 UPA Memberships at $30 each: $1350.00

Organization Name:Ìý ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Ultimate Frisbee

For:Ìý Ultimate Players Association College Memberships

When & Where will this Event Occur:Ìý N/A; Every player attending Ozarks Sectionals tournament must have a UPA membership in order to participate.

Master Calendar Confirmation:Ìý N/A

Event Details: Every year, Student Senate’s discretionary funding has allowed the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Ultimate Frisbee team to compete in the year’s culminating and most important tournament in our division: the Ozark Sectionals (This year being held in St. Louis, Missouri on April 10 and 11). In order to participate in this tournament, teams are required to register their players with the Ultimate Players Association, a not-for-profit organization that acts as the governing body for the sport of Ultimate in the United States. This year, ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Ultimate is sending three teams to compete in sectionals: one women’s team of 15 players, and two men’s teams consisting of 18 and 12 players.

Although ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Ultimate Frisbee is a club team, we practice three to four times a week, with no off season. As a team and a student organization, we are proud of the fact that we are able to foster an inclusive community atmosphere, maintain a competitive level of play against other college teams, and even host our own annual tournament (The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Ultimate Experience).

Thank you for your continued support of ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Ultimate Frisbee. Please contact Treasurer Rose Thomson (thomsonRE@hendrix.edu) or President Meagan Kreps (krepsMN@hendrix.edu) for additional information or questions.

How your senators voted?

Everybody Voted YES on all motions.Ìý
