Fyshwick United 09

Hi Ya'll,

The FU campaign for nationals 09 is already up and running. If you're looking to play some fun, competitive ultimate over the next 6 months and you're ready to take your frisbee relationship to a new level then Fyshwick United is the club for you.

We'll be aiming to take teams to several tournaments over the season. February will see us attend "Share the Love" in Sydney and the CB Invitational in Canberra. March takes us to Regionals in a yet-to-be-announced location. April will see the truly dedicated fly East to defend our title at New Zealand Nationals before we split our squad between Nationals in Perth and Bationals in Canberra. There should be plenty of opportunities to get some tournament time in whether you're a worlds veteran on our A team or a rookie looking to make a name for yourself.

If you're thinking about playing club level ultimate for the first time (club level ultimate is between various clubs from different cities and is usually more competitive and of a higher standard than leagues, university ulty or hat tournaments) then head along to the development clinics running after divisions 2 and 3 on Tuesdays. Talk to the coaches there about what to expect at FU training. We're looking for the right attitude and athleticism rather than for experience so come and introduce yourself on Tuesday nights and see if FU is what you're looking for.

If you're ready to dive straight in training will run on Thursday nights at O'Connor, starting in a few weeks (I'll have a precise date for you shortly). We'll be going over the basics for the first few weeks to give new players a chance to get up to speed then we'll be building towards the tournament season starting in February.

Playing for Fyshwick United is heaps of fun, lots of effort and will work wonders for your ultimate. So guys, dust off your most garish orange shirt, wash your sweatbands and tell your partner not to wait up. It's open season!
