Hello there, Scott, and the rest of the Maine Youth ulty crew. It is great that you have space for indoor and times for the interested youth. I have yet to push interest. I am hoping to get into some gym classes by early feb. Just like last season I had a very difficult time getting these kids interested out here on the island. They are so involved with other team sports and extracuricular activities that ultimate is like nothing important. I keep trying different tactics and we will see what happens this year. I work at the school full time but some kids don't even know me.
Anyways, I hope to get some MDI kids interested but I think only an hour at the All Sports arena in Waterville won't be enough for the long drive. I don't think its worth it from my end. I even thought about bringing some kids out to the usual sundays at Orono with the Old guys. But I can't get parent
permisson. I also just don't know how to get these kids out there. I would have to arrange a bus or a van. Something like that and the hopes of them remembering is really slim.
The problem with ultimate right from the start is the commitment. The kids have to see that if you commit to the sport you are likely to get involved just like any other sport and that is what I find the hardest about ulty. It is an indivdual commitment that needs to occur. The kids have to see others trying it out. There is so little High School Ultimate in Maine and the competition is slim.
I will try my best like I said and appreciate all the info from everyone in the ulty crew out here but I can't promise it is ever going to pan out here on the island.
thanks.
