Ultimate Frisbee Meetup of Fairfield County

Westport, CT

Ultimate Frisbee Meetup of Fairfield County

As featured in the Stamford Advocate! (scan: https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/8/8/2/1/high...)

We'd rather be out on the field playing Frisbee than being stuck in the gym; hence this Meetup. Ultimate is a fun, active sport that is easy to learn, and no special equipment is needed (except for a disc). This group is for players of all skill levels who want to play Ultimate Frisbee (or would like to learn the game). Basic qualifications: Can catch and throw the Frisbee!

Location: Usually Wakeman Park in Westport. Please let me know about any good fields around where we can play. VIMP: Please please fill in this poll when you join: (http://ultimatefrisbee.meetup.com/191/polls/125417/)

Fill in your profile, it will help us schedule the games more efficiently. I would rather have 20 active members in the group than 200 inactive! We are here to have fun, enjoy the weather and stay fit! Welcome!

RSVP guidelines: RSVPs are useful to help track attendance.  On days when attendance is low, sometimes it is necessary to cancel the game.  RSVPing helps prevent people from showing up to the fields when no game is happening.

The first rule of Frisbee is known as "The Spirit of the Game" and it refers to playing with high levels of sportsmanship and respect for other players.  This continues off the field, and it means as a group we welcome everyone, regardless of background or lifestyle.
