Anunaki update

While most of us were rugged up in our houses avoiding the bitter winds of the last few weeks, a few brave souls have been out training on Monday nights. In fact, tonight is the last training session before the ANU unigames team Anunaki board their flights to Perth.

The ANU has been steadily building a strong club culture and have had great success recruiting and enthusing new players this year. They even do things that aren't related to ultimate, like have movie nights. I still can't get over that. It's awesome to have not one but two ACT clubs (the other one is Soma) working hard to develop new players and give new people their first taste of tournament ultimate. Anunaki has been hit pretty hard by costs this year. Unigames is in Perth, so players need to be able to fork out a couple of hundred bucks for flights before they even think about dubious ultimate and unimpeachable partying. And of course, they're all students, so a few hundred bucks is about ONE MILLION DOLLARS in public servant money.

So if you see Brett Massey or his hardy band of ragamuffins give them your support, ask how things went, or better yet, buy them a sandwich or something.

Have fun out West, kids!
