Name Change
After some consideration by the captains, it was decided that the Wild Rose team name will prevail for another season.
After some consideration by the captains, it was decided that the Wild Rose team name will prevail for another season.
The new name that was voted on was not entirely well-received and the captains have limited time to spend on a new jersey design/logo before the season begins. So Wild Rose lives on for 2013! Stay tuned for any future name change initiations.

Help WFDF Gain Recognition by the IOC
The World Flying Disc Federation (WFDF) is currently pursuing an application for official recognition by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and needs the ultimate community's help! See Rob's post below:
WFDF continues to pursue our application for official recognition by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The application we submitted last year is in the process of being updated as we need to respond to a set of entirely new questions that were introduced into the process effective as of January 1, 2013. Our application will be submitted in early March and hopefully will be considered at the May 2013 Executive Board meeting.
One of the new questions relates to social media, and asks for the number of followers on Facebook and Twitter. WFDF had only introduced its Facebook page last July during the WUGC and as of last weekend only had around 1,400 "likes" on Facebook and 700 followers on Twitter. We think it would be helpful to show a significantly higher amount of interest when we submit these figures to the IOC. Accordingly, we would appreciate it if you would publicize immediately WFDF's Facebook and Twitter accounts and ask your members and social media followers and their friends to also follow WFDF's pages. For reference, these are:
Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/worldflyingdisc
Twitter: http://twitter.com/WorldFlyingDisc
Thank you. We really appreciate your support. Wish us success.
