Brief report: UKU Tour 2 (Open Divisions A + B)
WIth only two weeks to go until Worlds there weren’t a lot of international teams attending the second installment of the UKU Tour. Irelands Dublin Ultimate and the Netherlands Cambo Cakes being the exceptions. (The first weekend of the UK competition included several more international teams; Ragnarok, Silence, Inside Rakete, Karhukopla and MUC. The report can be read here) The first Tour had a bit of a disappointing final as Clapham convincingly won over Chevron Action Flash with a final score of 15-5. Fire of London took 3rd place that weekend and England solidified it’s reputation as the strongest ultimate nation in Europe. How did the second weekend fare?

In our world
It’s an exciting weekend coming up for us in this part of Ontario as well as in Europe.
I am heading to Cleveland No-Surf with Too Bad.
A number of friends (Rahil, Marc, and others) are heading to Northern Flights in North Bay. We should get a decent look at what’s going on in Ontario Mixed Ultimate based upon weekend results.
Hilco is off to UK Tour II (where he’ll encounter an Australian team that’s on a European tour as part of their WUCC experience). More details on this when he returns.
A younger group of friends are attending training camp for the Canadian U23 team in Vancouver.

The Windmill Windup
Those of you who have been keeping their ears to the ground will have heard about it. A small event in Amsterdam that grew out to be the biggest grass tournament in Europe. And that, mind you, in only six years time.

Introducing
Hey everyone,
My name is Hilco and Tushar has asked me to join as a contributor to IAmUltimate.
I’m really excited about it, and I will try my best to come up with interesting content. I am based in Amsterdam, so I’ll mainly be writing from a continental Europe perspective.
Think tournaments like Windmill Windup, xEUCF, Paganello and more.
This weekend I’ll be going to the UK Tour II (The second of three weekends that make up the national competition in the UK) where a lot of big UK teams will be enjoying their last practice before WUCC.
So stay tuned if you want to hear about the toughest European competitors for Worlds! (well, minus the Swedes).
Good to be here, more soon!

What is this “Ge Tur”?
During Paganello finals Patrick announced that the 2011 Beach Ultimate World Championships would be held in a small place known as Lignano Sabbiadoro. From the bid we’re told that it’s a full service complex with on site hotels and a pristine beach on the Adriatic. Of course, it’s better if you could just see a video on the location:

Each of the continents has an allure to it that would bring the masses but which one would you prefer?
Which continent would you like WUCC 2014 to be held in?
