Well here we are, after another tough Friday night Ultimate Frisbee practice. As some of you may know, one of my extreme passions is playing ultimate frisbee. While the legitimate aspects and respects of people who don't play ultimate aren't quite realized yet, the actual players of the sport become so mesmerized by it.
I swear, go watch a competitive game of ultimate frisbee on youtube or something. It is extremely intense. And while the logistics and rules can be quite cumbersome to memorize, and institute into your actual game play of the sport, you will become quite intrigued I promise you. I often believe that my sport, and my passion will become the next soccer of sorts, and many people will play it, as well as professionals hopefully.
The one difficult spot that we've run into here at Keene, is getting out sport recognized and respected. So often other students think we are just some hippie group tossing a frisbee on the quad in our spare time. While the fact remains, that we do do that in our spare time between classes, frisbee is tough to play. And not getting ample gym time to practice our sport and improve ourselves has led us to have a few problems between team chemistry. : (
And that's kinda tough. While the winter blues tend to get most people before March, this winter has especially been tough in our small town of roughly 25,000 people. Hmmmm. If only the 4 feet of snow on the quad would melt already.
This week should be about 50 degrees so just hang in there people. And I'll see you on the quad soon enough ; ) - C King
