Two years ago, my school started
an ultimate frisbee team. Actually it
was my brother and I after years of exposure of our older brothers playing
intramural ultimate frisbee at university.
And my older brothers were actually exposed to ultimate frisbee thanks
to my dad who use to teach it back at St. Mary’s – I can still remember walking
the halls of St. Mary’s when I was just in JK.
Anyways, our ultimate team two years ago did exceptionally well for our
first team in over a decade. I think the
big thing about ultimate frisbee is that it’s a sport that a lot of kids find
fun because for one: it’s a co-ed sport,
it’s crazy competitive and, most kids who play are seniors who want to play a
sport that is different from the usual sports that everyone at the school
plays. Ultimate frisbee has become
unbelievable popular at my school and now have two teams playing mostly due to
the fact that ultimate frisbee is now an OFSAA sport. Yes, you can win an OFSAA championship with
ultimate frisbee and with the stakes so high, I have acquired some MAC ultimate
players. Not sure what it is but, I have
become so obsessed with ultimate frisbee from watching Youtube tutorials and
highlights to playing it on my spare. I
think my love and passion for the game is also why so many people decide to
play. Along with my smooth talking, I
have convinced people from all grades and sports to play. Who would have thought a grade 9 track runner
or grade 12 volleyball player would be such natural ultimate frisbee
players? In the meantime, all I can do
is convince more people to play and practice more to snag that OFSAA title.
