Fees
$500 / team
Fees increased this year because of increased cost, including fields. This tournament runs at cost, meaning AU does not plan the event to make a profit. Any accidental profit goes right back in to youth programming.
When you register, the USAU system will show that fees have been paid. That's incorrect. Please pay in one of the following ways:
- Bring a check to the fields or mail to the following address. Make check payable to Austin Ultimate.
