May 14, 2016 6:30 am– We are having an Ultimate Frisbee Convergence at Star Command (Upward Star Center) in Spartanburg. This is an extremely fun workout, and a GREAT opportunity to EH all those guys who might not come to a weekly workout. Everyone loves playing Frisbee!
This was a great success last August, but we would love to see a bunch of other AOs join us as well!!!
THE RULES
Ultimate Frisbee is:
Ultimate is a limited-contact team field sport played with a flying disc, usually called the disc or frisbee. Points are scored by passing the disc to a teammate in the opposing end zone. Other basic rules are that players must not take steps while holding the disc, and interceptions, incomplete passes, and passes out of bounds are turnovers.
Ultimate Frisbee F3 Style is:
The same as above, except when there is an incomplete pass or the pass is out of bounds, the field Q will call an exercise and both teams drop and perform the exercise. The game immediately resumes once all PAX have completed.
When a team is scored upon, they must run the field and give 5 burpees as penalty.
Tournament Play:
The goal is to have several teams matched against each other. (teams to be named on tournament day)
Team 1 Vs Team 2- Winner 1
Team 3 Vs Team 4- Winner 2
Winner 1 Vs Winner 2- Winner in championship game
Losers 1 Vs Loser 2- Winner in championship game
Winners Vs Losers- CHAMPION
Each match will be 10 minutes of penalty play, and then 5 minutes of no penalty play except for score burpees x5.
The Championship will have no penalty. The observers (aka the losing teams) will be performing exercises at YHCs command on sidelines of field for duration of championship game.
Who’s Invited?
This is a Convergence, so no other workouts will be held in Ironworks. Swamp Rabbits and any other regions are welcome to join in for the beatdown….I mean…err…the fun, Just give YHC some heads up so we can plan w/ discs and fields accordingly.
What Do We Need?
Field Cones to create boundaries-
We could use some temporary jerseys for the team play, if not we are going shirts and skins-
Water coolers-
2 Fold out tables for coolers/breakfast
Donuts/Biscuits
(message Mab Mab if you can or will help w/ any of this)
The 2nd F
This is the BIG IDEA behind this convergence- to get PAX together and to have a friendly competition and some good fellowship while we get stronger. As mentioned before, this is a great opportunity to EH that FNG and get them plugged into something that has been life changing for all involved.
The goal is to have coffee and breakfast at the fields after….
