Any official recognition is a good thing.

Once we've sorted the World Clubs stuff out I'm sure the BUF committee will 
want to discuss BUSA.

Any further information which players have would be useful but please don't 
go making any formal approaches to BUSA until the BUF committee has had 
time to think about it.

Cheers

Phil, and others

A long time ago, I was a student type and tried what you're suggesting.
Back then the seperate Uni and Poly sytems were beginning their
combination and BUSA was just off the drawing board.

The basic rejection was due to 'not enough interest'. This conclusion
was formed on the results of a questionnaire sent to all (BSSF, ie Unis,
I think) member establishments and having only X% return the
questionnaire, of which only Y% actually had a team established and Z%
were interested in hearing more. X, Y and Z were deemed insignificant
numbers at the time.

Part of my reason for approaching BSSF at the time was that if we could
get the 'student' part of Ultimate recognised, events like the Student
Regionals/Nationals and further things like Student Leagues would have
the additional site/administration resources and maybe funding and seem
more 'serious'. The other part was that if we could go to the Sports
Council and say "the students are taken seriously" we might have an
extra foot on the ladder.

I'd suggest that you contact the necessary BUF personnel (Student
Coordinator [Dave Barnard], BUF Secretary [Ben Ravillious - a man who
must have inherited lots of informative files], Publicity Officer [Jon
Hope], and maybe Dave 'Sammy' Neilson and Ian 'Scott' Scotland) to get
as much background and progress detail as possible.

All the best

Wayne
