Ultimate around the World
For the past year or so, I’ve been playing Ultimate Frisbee with a city league team called the Orange Slices. This past weekend we played in the Winter Thing, a local tournament to raise money for the high school teams in Eugene.
Over the two days we played five games and had an absolute blast. And it got me to thinking about how I could play Ultimate while travelling. It turns out that Ultimate is popular all over the world.
So I guess if I ever find myself alone in a strange place and I don’t know the language, I’ll just pull out my frisbee.

Hey Tim,
GOOD cause, BAD name, UGLY colors. 🙂 See you in Bahrain (since you won’t be in Eugene in the summer when I’m there).

Yeah, being a Duck and all, the orange wasn’t my idea. But I really didn’t have a choice. The team originated from OSLC, hence the name Orange SLiCes. May be next year we can be the Lemon Wedges and wear yellow. 🙂
