Ultimate Frisbee, Day 142



Ultimate frisbee is an up and coming sport, the kids tell me. Both of them are on their high school team.




This weekend is State Championships and their team (s) are favored to win. My daughter is on the girls team and my son is on the open team. Please pray for an injury-free weekend for all of the kids. If you look at the first photo, you will see a girl with blond hair (and orange socks) jumping up into the air. I spent Mother's Day last year with her in the emergency room of a hospital when she was knocked unconscious and suffered a concussion during a game that was played in the pouring rain.

I don't want repeats of that this year. However, I am unable to attend the games this weekend. My hubby will be doing the honor of being a chaperone...

I've never heard about frisbee highschool teams! For me frisbee is a game to be played on the beach ...
Great capturing of the action!

There are frisbee golf (disc golf) courses around here.

Ultimate frisbee is kinda like football with a frisbee instead? I don't know of any teams around here.

I've heard of ultimate frisbee but not of it being played around here. Both your kids must be very good at it!
