Okay Ulti Parents and Kids!!

The next installment of our Juniors Clinic will be held on Wednesday, June 4th at Barrie Central Collegiate, starting at 7:00 p.m. and running until 8:30 p.m.

We had a very succesful first clinic in the dome in April and we’re hoping for an even bigger turnout in June.  We are looking for any kids age 6-13 who want to get out and play some ultimate, learn some new skills and have some FUN!

Remeber, there will be an adult clinic for new players this evening as well, so we’re the perfect form of babysitting if you were planning on attending

If you have any questions or need more details, please email:

The dice are ready to roll!

Wednesday night practices are starting this week (April 30) at Barrie Central (see ‘field locations 2008′).  We’ll be starting around 6:30 p.m. and any women who are interested in touring or just want to check it out and get some practice time in are welcome to attend.

See you there,

Katie and Sarah

Just wanted to let all you ultimate parents know that any of your little ones, aged 6-13, are welcome to join us at the Indoor Clinic being held at the Barrie Sports dome on April 28, starting at 7:00 p.m.   Just drop by - no need to register and parents do not need to be league members.

This will be the first of two ‘kid’s clinics’ we’ll be hosting this summer, where we will be running some fun drills/games to get them into the ultimate spirit!

Hello Ladies!

Well I see the men’s team has beat us to the forum, but since there’s still snow on the ground, I think we still have some time to get organized Last year the women of Barrie started the league’s first women’s touring team “Dice”.  We played a few warm-up tournaments in Toronto and Ottawa and then made a name for ourselves at Nationals in Toronto.  This year we’re really hoping to have a committed and competitive group of women from Barrie that can play together all season and hopefully make the trip out to Calgary for Nationals in August. 

We’re really excited about growing women’s ultimate in Barrie this summer so we’d like to get lots of women out to our practices, regardless of experience or ability.  Practices last year were a lot of fun and provided a great chance for improving fitness and skills.  We’ll post dates and locations of the Wednesday night practices in a few weeks, but for now, if you’r'e interested in practicing and/or touring, please email: womens.touring@barrieultimate.com and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Looking forward to getting the season started!

Sarah and Katie
