2010 Down in the Valley Hat

The city of Apple Valley and Minnesota Recreation and Parks Association have set the date for the 2nd Annual Down in the Valley hat tournament! Once again, we'll be looking to bring players of all ages and skills together for a fun weekend of Ultimate. If your team can turn it on at the right time, perhaps you will be the next to hoist the Golden Disc!

The inaugural champions, Sky Patrol, with the fabled Golden Disc

Players can (and should!) apply individually or with one requested teammate. We are again offering an early bird special: If you sign up by August 2nd, registration is only $10. Any players entering after that point (including day-of registrants) will have to pay $15. Our games are once again on the beautiful Johnny Cake soccer fields in Apple Valley.

Fee: $10 by Aug. 2nd, $15 after. Make checks payable to MRPA.

Early Bird Registration Extended!

Don't fret, there's still plenty of time to sign up and save up! The early bird special for registration has been extended to Thursday at 4 pm.

As long as we have your forms by then, it's only $10. As a special bonus, Air Traffic is giving out $5 gift cards to the first 50 people that sign up. Don't forget about the ridiculous prizes for the winners. Some details are being nailed down, but it's rumored that a golden disc - one that flies higher and truer than any others - can be found in the winner's circle...

Find two friends and bring 'em out. See you on Saturday!

We are now accepting player registration for the first annual Down in the Valley Ultimate hat tournament!
