Yargh!!

An interesting day of Ultimate. We’ve picked up players that are dedicated and layout like mad but are lacking in skills. It’s tricky but we’re improving. In a rematch of World Championships the Dragons took on Australia and pulled out a massive win. Full details coming up but you can find things out more on the ACBU website.

Delayed

Apologies for the lack of updates. The tournament is starting shortly and I’d like to partake in it rather than writing about it. So, off to another day in paradise. <!– raw HTML omitted –> <!– raw HTML omitted –>

Philippines – Day 2 – Quick Review

Apologies for a complete lack of media from today (well almost) but it was busy from the start. A new New Zealand team policy requires a morning swim and from bed to beach to water was a one minute walk. The water is cool in the morning and totally worth the early start. I had no real plans for the day other than to get some Ultimate in. Mark and I met up with some of the Australian players with whom we wandered the beach with before grabbing breakfast.

Day 1 – Boracay – Throwing

It’s been an incredible 24 hours here in Boracay. After a long journey from Toronto (LA, Guam, Manila, Catlican) I finally arrived at one of the most beautiful places in the world. I’m still a bit tired and groggy but managed to stay up the full day and get a game of Ultimate in with the Dragons. These Dragons are incredibly hospitable people and it’s easy to see why everybody gets along with them (with regards to Worlds and Paganello).

Where are you?!

After 28+ hours of travel from Toronto I have reach Boracay to play in and cover ACBU. While a small tournament it is, nevertheless, an important one. Australia and The Dragons will face off in a rematch of World Championships (Australia prevailed) over several days to further their rivalry. More updates from the field as soon as I get some sleep.

Shark talk

In an interest to learn more about people and our sport I will from time to time stop heckling and instead have a conversation with a fellow player. In keeping with the theme of this weekend (CUUC) I had a quick chat with Scott Hislop of the UWO Sharks and TFP (as he’s probably better known for). I first met Scott two years ago in the WODS indoor Winter league where we were on occasion decimated by the UWO team.
