>Dear Parent/Guardian
>
>On 30th June and 1st July I am helping to host the UKUA Junior National
>Outdoor Championships in conjunction with Sutton Coldfield Rugby Club at
>the Roger Smolden Ground, 160 Walmley Road, B76 2QA. A number of teams from
>around the country have already confirmed they will be attending to compete
>for the crown of Junior National Champions, and your child has expressed an
>interest in playing for one of the school¢s Arctic Ultimate teams that will
>be entered into the tournament.
>Games will run from approximately 0900 to 1700 on both days, and you would
>be responsible for arranging for your child to be dropped off at the
>tournament, and collected at the end of each day¢s play. There is camping
>available onsite for those teams who have a long way to travel and are
>looking to minimise the cost of the weekend. However Arthur Terry students
>are NOT invited to camp as this would create additional organisational work
>and supervisory responsibility for me, both of which would be unnecessary
>as each student has their own comfy bed a couple of miles down the road! I
>would expect all Arctic players to have left the site by 1900 at the very
>latest on Saturday. Please make sure you know what your child is doing on
>the Saturday night, and that s/he comes back ready to fully participate in
>and enjoy the Sunday.
>During the days I will be accompanied on site by other members of Arthur
>Terry staff to keep an eye on the Arthur Terry students in compliance with
>LEA guidelines, so there will be sufficient adult supervision during the
>weekend. However there will be certain amount of free time so we expect all
>students to act sensibly and not to wander off. I must emphasise this point
>as the tournament is on local and familiar territory for our students, and
>they may be tempted to think they can come and go as they please. All
>students must be dropped off at and collected from the tournament, and
>other than this may not leave the site without explicit permission from
>staff and accompaniment by a responsible adult. There will be limited
>security for belongings at the clubhouse, so I advise nothing that cannot
>be replaced should be taken. In case of injury, your child will be checked
>over by first aid at the tournament, and may be taken to the nearest
>hospital where medical advice will be
> followed. Please confirm on the reply slip that the medical form I
>currently hold remains up do date, or advise me of any changes, including
>any food allergies or medication being taken.
>I have obtained funds from school to cover the cost of entry to the
>tournament and insurance. There are no accommodation or travelling costs.
>Food will be available for purchase from the clubhouse during the day,
>though obviously students can bring their own provisions with them.
>Lookfly, a company specialising in equipment and merchandise related to
>Ultimate (they make the school kit), will be at the tournament on the
>Sunday afternoon, and will have items for sale. I encourage family and
>friends to come and watch and support those they know and the Arctic teams,
>and watch the best Under 20 teams in Britain.
>Providing you are happy for your child to attend the tournament please sign
>and return the attached consent form as soon as possible, and no later than
>Friday 22nd June. Please also attach relevant medical and consent forms etc
>if necessary. If you have any questions please don¢t hesitate to contact me
>through the school. I am looking forward to another great weekend!

>Hi All
>
>Junior Nationals is taking place on Saturday 30th June and Sunday 1st July
>this year. The tournament is taking place in association with Sutton
>Coldfield Rugby Club at the Roger Smolden Ground, 160 Walmley Road, Sutton
>Coldfield, West Midlands, B76 2QA.
>
>For those teams that need it, camping is available onsite for the Friday
>and Saturday nights at the ground, where there is access to toilets and
>showers at the clubhouse. Please let me know if you are planning to camp on
>either or both nights so I have an idea of numbers. The cost of camping is
>included in the entry fee.
>
>Food and drinks will be available to buy during the day from the clubhouse,
>and cooked breakfast will be available on the Sunday morning. At the moment
>assume you will have to pay for breakfast too, but once all the money is
>sorted out, if its possible I will pay a lump sum to the people putting it
>on include it in the entry fee. Walmley High Street, which has the usual
>array of shops and takeaways, is about half a mile down the road, and a
>couple of miles further on is a massive Walmart ASDA superstore. We have
>access to the clubhouse on the Saturday evening. I am hoping that the bar
>will be open, though it may only be serving soft drinks (not an issue for
>most of you). I hope to have some kind of entertainment lined up (this is
>currently to be confirmed, perhaps a quiz and/or party of some sort, or MAC
>line competitions or something). Anyway, we are usually pretty good at
>amusing ourselves, and there are plenty of bowling and cinema options
>available nearby if you fancy
>that.
>
>Some details may change as I hope to meet with Sutton Rugby Club this
>weekend to finalise details. I will post out any changes, but do not
>anticipate there being (m)any.
>
>IMPORTANT
>I'm hoping this is going to be a goood venue to use in terms of facilities
>and location, and would like to think it will be one that we use again in
>future if all goes well. My first bid to get access to it failed as they
>were nervous, particularly about the camping and potential associated
>problems with behaviour, damage to site, and risk of litter etc. They are a
>rugby club, so their concerns will be based on what they know. A couple of
>us have had to work hard to assure them it will be OK. We have had to put a
>load of measures in place (more details later and in captains packs etc) to
>allay their fears, as well as telling them how the Ultimate community is
>unlike most other sporting communities, with a much more developed sense of
>responsibility. It's your sport, it's your tournament, it's your
>reputation. DON'T LET YOURSELVES DOWN!!
