UKU University Mixed Outdoor Nationals (UXON) will be held on this weekend.
This weekend for UXON, we are asking team captains to join a WhatsApp Community for their region so that we can communicate any important announcements to teams throughout the weekend. Numbers are not visible in the community, other than to the community admins.
This event will follow the UKU Tournament Rules.
University teams should be working towards having a Spirit Captain at all events. SOTG resources can be found here. Please ensure your Spirit scores are submitted promptly using the button at the top of the page, ideally after each game or by the end of play on each day.
