Arse!
How have we managed to clash with this again? Anyway, please get out=20
there that weekend, and either come to Exeter for a wonderful Hat=20
tournament, or get along and help promote junior Ultimate (remember what =
Paul Hurt said about growth). You're more than welcome to turn up to the =
Hat on the Saturday night after the school fete, have loads of beers, =
and=20
join a team on the Sunday.
We have been trying to get a school's pack finished, and June 14th is =
our=20
new deadline. What it will contain is Scott's Frisbee basics pack which=20
now incorporates Connor's lesson plan, a free disc, BUF information,=20
information on other disc sports, where to buy more discs,=20
photocopyable posters, etc. We also hope to have it all converted into=20
National Curriculum jargon so it can become a plug in for schools. If=20
anybody out there has experience of writing National Curriculum plugins, =
can they please get in touch ASAP.
By September, we should have the entire pack finished which will include =
a=20
promotional video, set of 10 discs, Curriculum plugin, and possibly a=20
coaching video. Obviously, the finished pack is going to cost a fair =
amount.
There are other junior demos we have been asked to get involved in (one =

Gosport, another in Somerset) so please help us expand the sport by=20

Kevin.
PS. The Sport's Council have only ever recognised three sports with less =
than 50,000 players. If we want recognition, we must expand into schools =
to improve our player base.
