USAU's Triple Crown Tour
After introducing the non-tennis-related summer Ultimate tournament, USA Ultimate announced huge news for competitive teams. USAU's Triple Crown may sound like it's Medieval or about horse racing; so why not Game of Throwns?
USA Ultimate's Triple Crown Tour
Teams competing in the Triple Crown Tour will be divided into 4 competitive tiers (Flights) based on results from the previous season. The top 8 teams will be awarded a spot in the Pro Flight, while the next eight teams will compete in the Elite Flight. A maximum of 32 teams (four per geographic region) will be included in the Select Flight, and an unlimited number of remaining teams will be slotted into the Classic Flight.
Throughout the summer and fall, teams will compete in a structured Regular Season and Postseason format with an opportunity to win the three major components of the Triple Crown - the U.S. Open Ultimate Championships, the Pro Flight Regular Season, and the National Championships.
Regular Season sanctioned events will begin in June, while the U.S. Open Ultimate Championships in July will serve as the first of several Pro Flight events on the Triple Crown Tour. The Regular Season continues with various Flight-specific and cross-Flight Challenge events, as well as sanctioned USA Ultimate tournaments, providing a formal structure in which all teams will compete. The Regular Season is then followed by the Postseason, consisting of Sectional Playoffs, Regional Playoffs and the National Championships.
Teams performing well throughout the Triple Crown Tour will be rewarded for performance with a variety of incentives, including prize money for winning each of the three components, a bonus for winning the Triple Crown, byes to the Regional Playoffs, wildcards to Nationals, an invitation to the U.S. Open and more.
Unlike any sporting structure in the world, the Triple Crown Tour is accessible to any team. And while only four teams per division are eligible to win the Triple Crown in any given year, the structure features a promotion and relegation dynamic that allows teams to play their way into the Pro Flight and Triple Crown contention over time.
More explanation. [Ultiworld]

Week 6: Prevailing
After such a FUstratiNg time playing Ultimate on the beach last weekend, the solid ground and sporadic wind was welcomed. The difference between Saturday's wind strength compared to OBX was as different as the strong ocean waves were to ripples in the (heated) swimming pool.
The play of the game was a full layout one-handed catch by CHris at the sideline of a low backhand from CHarlie. This scenario had played out a few times during beach Ultimate, but for end-of-point scores. So, NICH quickly established a pivot and threw a 30-yard cross-field flick laser to Nigel; 5-2.
Sludge began with three break scores; Henry to Russ, a bookend
by Jen and then Mike's apt-advised hammer to Steve. Natitude quickly set in fearing big early leads; 3-1. CHarlie restored brown's O with
an upline backhand to Brian; 4-2.

Sludge D was again establishing their many-throws-zone thanks
to a stable cup presence. Russ' bookend; 7-3. Another break score led to a flow
from MattHew to Nigel to Sarah; 8-3.
The energetic first half continued after halftime. More
breaks cores led to a Bucci to Joe to Nigel chain; 9-3. Russ' ill-advised cross-field
flick was tipped by the defense and grrabbed by MattHew in the endzone; 11-3.
ReRun's one-point switch to zone D was one of the
quicker points of the game with MicHael and CHarlie handling complemented with timely
cuts from Jen, Brian and RacHel; 12-5.
Solid all-around performance by Sludge not only creating
turnovers, but also seizing on the TOs with efficient point-making. Win 15-6.
