We've been Challenged by this Chick

Hello Disney,

If I have not already done this, I'm declaring war on all of you.
Basketball war that is, I just moved into a new apartment and it has a basketball court. So with not wasting anything in these tough economic times, we should play some b-ball.

15 games, 8weeks, and a bracket tournament at the end.

2 games will be played a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays 6pm @ 884 Buttercup Rd. Carlsbad, CA 92011

Games will start the week of July 6th and go through August 24th

The end of season tournament will be 5 games of single elimination bracket to find the winner. (Prize for winning team!)


What I need from you is to find at least 5 players (that makes up a basketball team) and a couple extra people as backups for each of your parks. Also you need to come up with an awesome team name, and if your cool enough t-shirts....or at least a team color!

Also my new place has a heated pool and jacuzzi if you guys want to bring your swim suits along and relax after the games.

You got any questions email/call me, lets make this summer rock!

P.S. Bring it
