Looks like we'll be able to field two teams for indoor.
Anyone interested in practicing this Thurs at 5 am indoors at
Westridge let me know and I'll give you a count.

Highlands is going forward with a league.  Sign-ups will take place
over the next two weeks.  Games will be played on Monday nights--- 9pm
and 10 pm.  4 on 4 format.  Coed. Seven to a team.  First game would
likely be July 10th.  The Cost would likely be $25-35 per person.
Probably a max of 4 teams.  4-5 games and then play-offs.  The court
dimensions are bigger than I originally thought--narrower yes, but
shorter by only 15+ yards.  The administrator thinks they won't have a
problem with interest--I told him the proposed game times would help.
Non-ranchers could play.

Would our group want to sign up one team? Two?  If interested let me
know tomorrow or via email ASAP to hold a spot.

Ed

We had two commits and one maybe--we'll try again next week.

GAME ON!!!

It's official, next Thursday at 5 am the HR Westridge Rec Center is
reserved for Ultimate. Sounds crazy. They say this is on a "test"
basis this month to see if the interest exists. Unfortunately, I'll
be traveling for the inaugural. Given this is new, email me if you're
able to commit and I'll follow up with an update with numbers. Non
Ranchers would have to pay $6 and show up with a Rancher--shouldn't be
an issue.

If June goes well, they'll look at additional times. The 4 on 4
league things apparently still on.
Email with commits and questions---spread the word.

Don't hold me to this, but the administrator said the schedule changes
for Indoor Ulti were being made as we speak and would be effective
June 1.

He said the 4-4 league was to start in July (I guess some recent
college grads are in the mix and are pushing this hard).

If you're interested in voicing your support/interest . . . Steve Lang
is the Facility Manager at West Ridge--720 348-8211.  More to come--
hopefully---Ed

Indoor ultimate does sound fun, and Inline ultimate has possibilities, but wouldn’t it be hard to stop?   Maybe we could modify that. 

 

Like Jeff said, “the response would be stronger in the winter.”   It would be great to be indoors in Dec, Jan, and Feb.

 

Assuming there was enough interest, what type of timeframe do you think Westridge is considering?

I think we should combine the sports and play inline ultimate.  Now we've got something marketable.

I'm open to trying the pickup and the league.  However, I think the response will be better during winter when people don't want to play outside.

Westridge Rec Center is considering adding a "drop in" time   for
Ultimate, one day a week in the early a.m.  Probably 5-7 am.   
They're also considering a 4 on 4, 4 team league as a pilot this  
summer--to continue into fall and winter if the interest is there.   
I've thrown the disc on the arena floor after my son's hockey  
practice and I think it would work pretty nicely--it takes a decent  
heave to get it from one end to the other--ok, that's not saying  
much.    Steve Bernizoni is the administrator looking into it--
apparently   they want to move beyond Westridge's reliance on in-line
hockey and   want to introduce new uses/sports and thus Ulti.  He's
trying to   hook up with the UPA in Boulder for some guidance on how
to approach   it, do rules, etc.    Their big question is whether the
interest would be there from the   broader Highlands community. 
Personally, I think the drop-in pick- up would be workable at the hour
proposed, just another Ulti option   that I could get to.  I've told
him about our group and he's very  interested to know what we think. 
E-mail me with your   thoughts/interest and I'll pass it on.    Ed

Just in case someone was interested – high school championships for Ultimate Frisbee this weekend in Boulder.

I've talked to a number of you about Ultimate Frisbee. Some of you are more curious, some less. Either way, I wanted to give you a chance to fill up your free time, work on your farmer's tan, and, most importantly, a chance check out a high level ultimate event so you can see what it is that dominates so much of my life.

This weekend, high school westerns (nationals for any school west of the Mississippi) is in Boulder, CO. I'll be coaching the Lakewood girls ultimate team Saturday 9am-5:30pm and Sunday 9am-2:30pm. I'll also be playing in a showcase game at the same fields 6pm-8pm (tentative times). The best games to watch should be the showcase games, hence the name. However, seeing the future stars of a sport is pretty cool too.

There should be two high level showcase games (I think at the same time):

Johnny Bravo (men's club team in Boulder, CO) versus University of Colorado Mamabird (Ranked #3 in the college rankings)
Kali (women's club team in Boulder, CO) versus University of Colorado Kali (Ranked #3 in the college rankings).  

If you have any questions, let me know. I won't be able to socialize much because I'll be coaching or playing, but I'll definitely say hello to everyone I see. No need to RSVP or anything, just show up if you want to.

I hope you can make it out, Brody
