Great job from the team at the second day of tournament

Great day yestertady at Wageningen during the second day of the indoor season. Great improvement in the results: 2 lost and 3 won!

WOW

I was out for injury but I was really willing to play. Anyway I was there as a official cheerleader (but I miserably failed to wear my miniskirt) or as coach (but I was too silent). As a matter of facts I was taken as official photographer and tried to document the day with 4 different cameras! I got quite confused, I must say.

Anyway the results of the first digital roll (we have 3 analog rolls still to develop) is here.

Spirit of the game

Many times we hear about it, and some times it seems not to be there. From UPA:

Ultimate relies upon a spirit of sportsmanship which places the responsibility for fair play on the player. Highly competitive play is encouraged, but never at the expense of mutual respect between players, adherence to the agreed upon rules of the game, or the basic joy of play. Protection of these vital elements serves to eliminate adverse conduct from the Ultimate field. Such actions as taunting of opposing players, dangerous aggression, belligerent intimidation, intentional fouling, or other 'win at all costs' behavior are contrary to the Spirit of the Game and must be avoided by all players." 

Second day of indoor competition (Sun December 17)

The second day of the indoor competition will take us to Wageningen.

Crunch 4 and Gronical Dizziness 5 have been promoted to the 5th division. In their place we'll encounter Crunch 2 and a new team from Hilversum. Of course, we will also run into some of our old favourites: the Vellesan Speedies 2 and 3 and our hosts WAF 3.

Our schedule looks as follows:
10:50-11:15 PANIC! - S&B Hilversum
11:55-12:20 Crunch 2 - PANIC!
13:55-14:20 PANIC! - Vellesan 3
15:55-16:20 PANIC! - WAF 3
17:25-17:50 Vellesan 2 - PANIC!

Departure from Leiden is to be arranged, but will likely be between 8 and 8:30am, so get some sleep!!!

Please post a comment to confirm that you will be there so we know who to expect.

Practice Tuesday 5 December (St. Nicolas)

This Tuesday will be the celebration of St. Nicolas, the most exciting day of the year for all naughty and nice Dutch boys and girls.

Most likely, this will mean that practice is off this Tuesday. However, should enough people rather play 'bee than waiting for our favourite saint to come by, post a comment on this blog saying you'll be there (you need a google-account to post comments).

Practice is on in case of six positive reactions or more.
