It is that time of year again, Winter is almost here... well, Winter League is at least!  UPLA is excited to announce this year's league will be hosted at a fantastic new field site, where all teams will be in the same location and there are more resources on site.  We look forward to  a great, competitive league this year!

Games will be held at Brushy Creek Sports Park, 2310 Brushy Creek Road (Google map directions from UT Intramural Fields for reference:http://g.co/maps/46wqr) where all 6 fields are together!

The location is easily reached by taking Mopac north then 183 N for about eight miles. Next, take the exit for Lakeline Mall Dr, then merge onto Research Blvd. After about a mile, turn right onto Avery Ranch Blvd. Less than two miles down you will turn left onto FM 734 W/W Parmer Ln and left again in 0.7 miles onto Brushy Creek Rd. The park entrance will be on your left very shortly after turning, you can't miss it!
