And, unlike some sports, the best ultimate players are usually more than happy to share what they know about the game. The league's Clinic Team will be putting on clinics throughout the year. Ultimate is the biggest co-ed sport in the world(!) and it focuses on Spirit, Fun and Friendly Competition. Players of all skill levels are invited to come out for a "back to basics" Skills Clinic followed by a 'pick-up' game. Do you have a friend, co-worker or family member who is interested in learning more about Ultimate? Then the Basic Skills Clinic would be a good place to start! People of all ages and fitness levels are welcome. The next Skills Clinic will take place *1pm, Saturday, May 4th, Regent's Park (There is a regular pick-up game here at this time also) This map shows the general area where we will be, but look around for low-flying objects when you get there. http://www.londonultimate.org/league/maps.html To register your interest for this day, please email Kynan at "kacheng@yahoo.com" with a subject of "4 May Clinic". [Volunteers please also contact me as above] What will I learn at the Skills Clinic? At the Skills Clinic you'll learn about the rules of Ultimate and the basic skills and knowledge needed to successfully play. Each clinic will last about 90 minutes. BASIC - throwing, catching, rules, terminology, marking a handler, handling a marker, effective cutting INTERMEDIATE - tactics: stacking, person-person defence At each Clinic there will be a pick-up game so you can practice your skills! Will it cost me anything? Not a chance! London League Clinics are free, but donations are definitely accepted - everything collected will be used to promote Ultimate in London. Clinics are being kindly provided by volunteers from teams throughout London League. What do I need to bring? Not much: * A disc if you have one * A light-coloured shirt * A dark-coloured shirt * Water How can I learn more? The best way to learn to play Ultimate is to Play Ultimate! During the summer you can probably find a pick-up game (or organise your own) on almost any day of the week.
