Here's the content of a letter that I've recently sent to the pubs (see
the list at the end) that are local to the tournament.
Please note that the pubs will now be aware that you might be coming,
and that I have therefore made you all ambassadors for the sport of
Ultimate.
If there's any trouble, it will be blamed on "those Ultimate players". I
don't expect anyone to start anything, but don't get involved in any
trouble.
Security:
There's also now the chance that we may get some spectators.
Unfortunately this will also increase the inherent security risk, so
please ensure that you know that all your valuables are always somewhere
safe (from bitter experience I'd suggest that "in a tent" is not
necessarily "somewhere safe") - don't leave your gear lying around
unattended where any "undesirables" might remove it...
On the other hand, don't get paranoid.
Wayne

Dear Sir
ULTIMATE FRISBEE TOURNAMENT - 29 & 30 APRIL 2000
We shall be hosting an Ultimate tournament at King Edward's Place
(Allied Dunbar's Training and Conference Centre) on the above dates, and
expect between three hundred and four hundred players to attend and
participate.
I thought it best to warn the local Public Houses that there is the
distinct possibility that many of these players may visit the local
hostelries seeking food and refreshment, particularly on Saturday
evening.
In our past experience, somewhere between twenty-five and seventy-five
players meet at the Shepherds Rest on Friday evening. On the Saturday
evening we usually have use of the Dining Hall and Bar at King Edward's
Place, but I have heard that many of the players favour the local Public
Houses.
I have been advised that both the Bar at King Edward's Place and the
Shepherds Rest are unable to accommodate us on the Saturday evening, and
have advised the players accordingly.
I would therefore expect more of our players to visit the local Public
Houses. Unfortunately, I can predict neither numbers, nor which Public
Houses they will visit. Hopefully, you will be able to take whatever
action you feel appropriate.
I trust that you will not be inconvenienced by any of the players.
Yours faithfully
Wayne Retter
