A brief introduction of myself: I'm a junior right now and play for
Pitt. I've played for their A team both freshman and sophomore year. I
went to Lake Braddock in high school, which has recently started an
ultimate frisbee club. Nothing terribly formal...just a bunch of kids
playing around, although a few of the kids have wanted to really play
the game how it's meant to be played.

Thinking about this, I had an idea which I'd like to begin next
summer, after my college season and the WAFCJR high school season is
done. Basically, I want to start a club team for high schoolers and
college kids that go to schools like NOVA that don't have a chance to
play college ultimate.

The main goal of this club is to teach everyone how ultimate's played
at the highest level, and to treat this as an introduction into true
club ultimate, and potentially as a stepping stone to try out for
other area club teams like Medicine Men, etc.

While the structure is only in the planning stages, I'd hope for 1-2
practices a week. If there were 2, one would be mainly playing, and
the other would be working on more fundamental drills, such as
throwing with a mark, breaking the mark, 1 on 1 cutting and defending,
etc.

It doesn't have to be anything terribly formal or hardcore. This is
basically an opportunity to develop skills and learn with other kids
around the area, and hopefully go to a few tournaments together.

If this could be sent to teams around the area for interest, that'd be
terrific. If anyone else has ideas and can add to this, that'd also be
great. I noticed there's a NOVA all-star team at sectionals, and
essentially what I want to do here is develop it a step further into
getting some training together.
