Weather: 80 F, Sunny
Field: grass
Perfect conditions for Ultimate.
Our second BUDA hat league game of the spring was a wild success as we sprinted to a 15-4 victory in under two hours. I’m a little bummed though because it looks like I may have [...]

Once again several games have gone by without my posting! I am happy to report, though, that the spring BUDA hat league season is finally underway after rainouts the first two weeks. Our team took the season opener 15-9. Also, I’ve joined up with the “Spawning Alewives” BUDA summer club league and [...]

Oops! Since getting back from GDC I fell way behind on my ultimate posts. So much so that it’s unlikely I can accurately remember the details from each of the games over the past two weeks. All told I played six games since my last Ultimate update, a few of them in [...]

We nearly didn’t have enough players declare themselves “IN” via email for this game. According to my emails, that would have been the first “GAME OFF” called for the Burlington Mon/Wed/Fri pickup games in over a year. [...]
