Brighton's junior team (Strangers with Candy) started after they saw a tiny bit in the local paper about an Ultimate Frisbee tournament happening in Lewes (Brighton Beyond 2006), and came down to see what the deal was on the Saturday. They came back on Sunday to buy some frisbees and watch the final games, and have barely missed a week's training since. I recommend anyone running a tournament spends an hour trawling the web for local media contact details & sends out some info.
