Help NCSU Alpha Get to Nationals!

Donation protected
The North Carolina State men's ultimate team has qualified for USA Ultimate's nationals for the first time in 10 years! This achievement is not something that has come easy for this program and should be celebrated. The NCSU program is one that has been nationally relevant in the past, winning a national title in 1999 under the name Jinx. Equipped with a new name and culture this year, the team has had success throughout the regular season and our efforts came together at regionals last weekend. This group has 8 players in their last year, and we are beyond grateful for them and our ability to send them out on the biggest stage.  Alpha 2019 is a unique group that has bonded together through accountability and love for one another.

However, as with any great achievement, the cost of this trip and tournament is a significant burden on many of our players and their families. The tournament is in Austin, Texas, so getting there and affording it is an issue. North Carolina State does a fantastic job supporting us financially during the regular season, but most of the costs of the postseason falls upon the players themselves. As much as we want to attend this tournament, we realize that the cost many times is too tough for our players to front. Between hotels, flights, van rentals, per-player bid fees, food, etc., the cost of this tournament can end up being hundreds of dollars per player. 

Here is where we call on you, the fantastic ultimate community! You've done an amazing job up to this point supporting us emotionally and mentally. Now we ask that you give a little bit of financial support to the team. No donation is too small or will go unnoticed.  There are players who will not be able to attend this tournament without outside help, and so you can feel secure that your donation will be used to allow for this team to be together as a whole for one last weekend.

Thank you all so much for following along on this journey! You can watch the rest of our season unfold and enjoy our success on Twitter at @NCSUAlpha, or contact me at mwlee@ncsu.edu if you have any questions! Thank you all so much, not done, Roll Pack!
