Manila Spirits/AOUCC 2009

It is official. We have been awarded the Asia Oceanic Ultimate Club Championships 2009 (AOUCC 2009).

The tournament will be held on Nov 6 to 8, 2009 at Alabang Country Club, Alabang, Metro Manila. Depending on the number of teams and divisions, registration will be on November 5.

The plan is for mixed, women’s, and open divisions as long as there are enough teams for each division (WFDF requires 4 teams to qualify as an official AOUCC division). It is club based and will be a basis for qualifications for the World Club Championships 2010 in Prague.

Eligibility requirements are still being finalized. From what we currently know, it is a club competition and not necessarily a “national team” format one, but we’ll keep you posted when we get official word if players should still be representing a country and if non-Asia based players would be allowed.

So mark your calendars and file those leaves! Spirits this year will be HUGE!
