The City of SeaTac has taken an interest in working with DiscNW to foster Ultimate as a city-sponsored sport. The plans for the summer are to have clinics, a couple of hat tourneys and a fall school league [tentative]. Last week they kicked off with a clinic but now want to spur participation through sponsored pickup the next three weekends. The details:
Where: Sunset Playfields are located in North SeaTac Park on 136th St. If you're familiar with the SeaTac Disc Golf Course, it's one block west of that and one block east of Des Moines Memorial Blvd. http://www.mapquest.com/maps?address=S+136th+St+at+16th+Ave+S&city=SeaTac&state=WA. We'll have two fields set up -- one for younger/newer players and one for more advanced/experienced.
When: Saturday May 8, 15, and 22. Fields are available at 9:30 AM, games run 10 am - noon
Who: you! And your friends and anyone who might be interested in learning more about ultimate -- or getting in on the upper game.
How: Bring a light and a dark top to help make teams, water, cleats, and good spirit.
Also, OUTLAW ULTIMATE (open) is having tryouts this Saturday just after this (12:30pm I think). Sounds like you can do a two-fer--warm up with SeaTac pickup, and then head on to tryouts. Search for OUTLAW ULTIMATE on Facebook for more details.

Are the Outlaw tryouts at the same field as the Seatac pickup?
ReplyDeleteNope. OUTLAW: 12 to 2ish at Sunnydale school. Apparently that is near the airport, so I expect it is 10-15min away from SeaTac event.
