Ultimate Frisbee

One thing I love to do in the summer and try to do it as much as possible is ultimate Frisbee.  We try to get about ten people so we have two teams of five and we just play for hours.  We play to about five points and then we usually switch up teams and try and make the teams as even as possible.  We play down and vets park on the outfield of the softball fields.  From end zone to end zone is about 200 feet apart and from sideline to sideline is about sixty feet.  The rules are: you cannot double team someone with the Frisbee, You are only allowed two steps with the Frisbee in your hand, if any part of the Frisbee touches the ground before you have possession of it it’s a turnover, you can bump and push but only to a certain extent.  I absolutely love chucking the Frisbee down field as far as I can but I never have anyone on my team that can catch up to it and get it, so I am usually the one sprinting down the field when my teammates hurl the Frisbee.  I hate when I have to dive for the Frisbee, because it’s either a win-lose situation or a lose-lose situation.  If you dive and catch it that’s a win but you’re all itchy, lose.  If you dive and miss it’s a lose-lose because you didn’t get the Frisbee and your super itchy now and have grass or dirty stains on your arm and or shirt.  If I had the choice I would play ultimate Frisbee every day for the rest of my life, but some things are more important, like school, and work.  I try and play as much as possible in the summer even if we can only get two teams of 3, its just more room for me to run and score.
