Re: Help Naming our Off-Season Event!!

The event will be different then in previous years.
Since we are actually getting a FIRST field, there will be a registration fee(to help cover costs), and we will be playing a game very similar to Ultimate Ascent!

Thanks for all the great ideas so far, keep them coming!

Yes but you can't have offseason's without teams, and not one team will show up if you promise this.

I like dust-offs,
but I hate dusting off anything in my backyard during the monsoon, knowing that within a week, I'll have to "dust off" again.

Logos for Tucson Tussle? Two mountain lions /wildcats fighting. Just like (cough, cough) UoA.
