Having followed this discussion I'm somewhat surprised at some of the
reactions. Something I'd like to know is, are tournament organisers going to
get this kind of grief each time they organise an open tournament?

Dear Organiser
I've been reading about your Savage tournie - which sounds fantastic. A
great venue and well organised.
However, it's a shame that it is not a co-ed tournie 2-5 split. As a
female player, it is really hard to find teams that want to play with you.
I've been told that Clapham are entering at least two teams to this
tournament and therefore other guys are 'taking this tournament seriously'
and therefore don't want women on the team.
I could enter a women's team, but paying £20 for three games against such
competition would not be that much fun.
I've sent this to Britdisc to have a bit of a rant really - women play
serious ultimate and it's rude to consider us only worthy of playing on a
team when you're not bothered about winning the tournament. Please can
tournament directors consider more co-ed regulations?
Feel free to abuse me for being a whinging hag and to bugger off to
organise a tournament myself.
Becca
