As far as I am aware GB has never sent a 'Guts-only' team to a major European or World championships which has caused some tricky scheduling problems for those competing in both Ultimate and Guts. In an attempt to reduce the impact such 'doubling up' may have on the Guts event, the following PRELIMINARY statement has been issued by WFDF (although not yet ratified, the logic seems fairly sensible): "For Ultimate players to play Guts, their ultimate team must already have 12 dedicated ultimate players. The 13th+ players will likely be allowed to play Guts as well. The Guts teams will need to have 6 players minimum. For example, an ultimate team will need to have 18 players to field a guts team, 12 dedicated to ultimate and 6 additional to play Guts. I suppose the 6 guts players could come from many different teams, but there will be schedule conflicts I suspect. Dave "Nez" Nesbitt WFDF Guts Chairman" Please let me know if you would like to be considered for the GB Guts team - if we have enough interest, I guess we can hold trials! Remember that this is open to *all* players regardless of age, sex or preferred disc sport! Cheers Sam Neilson GB Guts Manager.
