As you all know this Wednesday we have our very first Ultimate Frisbee league game. This is also the time to meet your team for the first time and to see how well you play together (no pressure!). Please bring plenty of water to drink, as well as a white and dark shirt (we will be putting an order in for t-shirts, you will receive those at a later date). Your team captains will give you further instructions on the field.
Please show up early for 6 PM!
1st game
This is a bit late notice, but if you are looking for WHERE the pickup location is for Ultimate Frisbee today. It is still at Average Joe’s. Click on the link to get google maps directions to the location. 2PM, bring penty of water, light / dark shirt.
See everyone out there!
Well, if you see this and haven’t signed up, it is now officially too late to register & pay. You can however email us at info@windsorultimate.com, and request to be put on the waiting list. People on the waiting list will NOT be put on teams with friends (teams are already picked and balanced!).
For those of you who HAVE registered, but did not pay, you have by Wednesday to pay, or you we have other people standing by on the waiting list to take your place. Payment options of course are Paypal or check on the field (no cash!).
As mentioned in the clinic and via newsletter, we will be focusing on two key strategic plays this year (as well as vertical stack). To better understand the dynamics and logistics behind it, I wanted to show people a great Ultimate Frisbee resource — the Ultimate Handbook
Use the links below to get a sense for how zone or horizontal stacking is done:

How to use a horizontal stack to your advantage during play (note the 3 handlers!):

Feel free to go even further and get more of this strategy into your game, your legs will thank you (less running and better scoring opportunities).

Just a reminder…
This saturday we will be selecting teams. IF YOU DID NOT REGISTER YET, you will NOT be on a team. We cannot obviously assign people that do not register. So if you loved the clinics (and Ultimate Frisbee), but did not register, please do so by Saturday. Otherwise late registration might not guarantee you a spot (after teams are chosen).
For those that HAVE registered, please be aware that if payment is not received by next week Wednesday (1st start of season – league game) you will not be able to play.
Also, if you haven’t registered, you are missing out on our informative newsletter, which we send out quite regularly to all league sign-ups / payee’s, so do it today!
