Suburban Ultimate Frisbee (Schaumburg)

Early Holiday Party

December 14, 2012 · 7:00 PM

Hey everyone! So all these non-frisbee outings that people have been hosting have been a lot of fun, and I figure it's time for me to get in on this action. So you are all welcome to join me at my place for what we'll call an early holiday party.

Feel free to text or email me for my address. My email is [masked].

If you are super new, and we haven't met, I may not share my address. Sorry, nothing personal, but I'm not giving out my address to just anyone. I'm sure once we get to know each other out on the field, this will no longer be the case.

For those of you that have been playing, but I haven't met, email me, and I'll have one of the other organizers vouch for you.

Oh, and I'll have some beer and food here, and will probably be ordering pizzas, but feel free to bring any snacks or beverages that you'd like.

Join or login to comment.

ok so, funny story...it's possible I will be out of town from Friday night to Saturday. Not confirmed yet, but possible. If I'm gone, I will miss you all very much.

  Its funny only because John asked if I would be in town and I thought that there was no way no how I would be out of town and then now I'm possibly going to be out of town...and Alex, I used to come to Frisbee and I used to love you but now since you forgot about me, I don't know anymore.

  "But you didn't have to cut me off
  Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
  And I don't even need your love
  But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough"

  From what my Google Maps spying has shown, Satya's neighbors have a trampoline / playground thing. Satya's backyard is hidden by trees. I may have to investigate in person.

Who is bringing the fruit salad?

Damn right Satya wants to "get in on the action." Also, "getting to know each other out on the field" requires Satya to actually show up and play now and then, less likely now that we're into wintertime weather.

In any case, this should be fun. Since you didn't RSVP with any +'s, I'm assuming you have the house to yourself?

There's a group who plays "Goaltimate" in Chicago. It's pretty intense and pretty fun. Sort of like a very fast-paced half-court basketball type disc game. They mainly play Saturdays and Sundays. Join the Google group here - http://groups.google.com/group/chicago-goaltimate

Main Description

First thing, don't speed in the forest preserve. We've had a few individuals get pulled over / ticketed for going like 25 (the limit is 15).

We currently play - HERE - Note the New location and Alternate location.

More people show up than the number that RSVP! We usually have at least two games of 5-on-5 going, and almost, almost always have at least 7-on-7. (Winter games are the exception. We still play, but numbers are often weaker.)

We are a pick-up game. Not any sort of championship game. Don't worry about "letting your team down" or anything like that. This is a great way to get outside, get in a good amount of running, and to meet new friends. On Sundays we typically play a little more structured, but it's still the same sort of friendly atmosphere.

All ages and ability levels are welcome ~ we really mean this. Our youngest player was 10 (now 11 or 12), our oldest 68. We have a group of people that play multiple times a week in leagues, and then we have new players come who we teach to play on the field. Some of us are in really good physical shape - others get winded after a few runs up the field. It is a great time and you will fit right in!

The most important thing - this is a pickup game. Our skill levels vary quite a bit. Again, we have league/club/college players and we have completely new folks. If you want to be competitive, match up against someone else playing competitively. If you're a beginner, match up against the other beginners (And ask questions!). We enjoy learning strategy, playing a good game, and getting in a workout - but we are mainly out here to play and have fun.

We distinguish teams by "light" colors (usually white) and "dark" colors (usually everything else). Try to bring a WHITE and a dark (NOT GREY) to each game, so we can make teams even. At the very least, please don't wear grey. It's neither light nor dark and is really good at confusing people in the heat of the game.

The games basically run themselves. So when you come, just jump in. Everyone is really friendly. We were all new to the group once before.

Sincerely,

The Schaumburg Ultimate Pick-up Players
