Sunday Sunday Sunday..be there!

Thanks to everyone who made it 4 games last weekend! Nice job!

Hope to have a good group again this weekend.

Looks like the rain will be in the morning on Sunday..so that means better padding for lay-outs!

See you on Sunday at 1:00pm. Bring plenty of layers and a light and dark shirt.

Game on!!

Thanks to all those who played last weekend-it was chilly, but a great game. If you were cold, my guess is that you weren't playing hard enough :-)

Colder weather ahead, but we will be playing on Sunday at 1:00pm.

Bring plenty of layers to beat the cold!

See you then,

I think it might be too cold (but game on) UPDATED

As much as I really want to play this Sunday, I think playing in 30 degrees might be too cold, inviting injuries and bad throws (well, at least mine). I think we're going to have to call it quits for the season. If it warms up and isn't raining too hard, I'll call a game. Until then - have a great holiday!

Edited to add: Apparently, you guys are total troopers and want to play in any weather. So, if anyone is interested in playing, there will be people there this Sunday at 1pm. Have fun!

No Game on Sunday

Hey guys, it looks like it will almost certainly rain on Sunday and the temperature will be pretty low. I'm thinking the turnout will be slim to none so I'm just going to call off the game for Sunday. If there are enough people who are still wanting to play in the rain

Pick-up Ultimate, Wednesday at Willamette Park

I still can't believe we didn't get rained on on Sunday. For those who missed it - we had a good turnout and an evenly-matched game. It was tat-for-tat in a "win by two" situation and the team that won ended with 10 points.

You guys are going to luck out tomorrow because it's supposed to be dry. Try to meet at Willamette Park at 5:30pm. Bring a light shirt and a dark shirt.

Ideas for a Logo

Some people are interested in creating T-shirts for our SW frisbee players. We're working on designing a logo. So far, the only idea has been Eddie's face, but there might be funnier things out there, who knows? j/k Eddie. Anyway, chime in if you have any ideas. Eventually we'll draw up a sketch and see if we can get some sweet shirts to represent us.

Wednesday game, 6pm at Willamette Park

Sunday was super hot, but we had a great game.

This week the Wednesday game is the same as before - 6pm at Willamette park. We are working on maybe moving the game to a place with lights so that we can play after dark. Someone is checking the schedule at the PSU turf field to see if we can take up the game there as it gets dark earlier. However, if anyone knows of another place we can try, please let us know.

Other than all that, bring a light shirt and dark shirt tomorrow.

Lost and Found

Someone who is either from Idaho or a big fan of the state left two shirts behind today. One is a dark blue men's tank and the other is pictured here:
I also have a fresh disc and some cones that some people left. The cones were left at last Wednesday's game. The disc was left today. 

Comment if you are the owner of any of these things and let me know when you'll be at an upcoming game so I can bring them to you.

Wednesday was a fun, evenly matched game. We had a good turnout. Thanks to Triorco for the large supply of blueberries! A group of us did karaoke at Suki's afterwards - they have a pretty fun scene. So if you're into that sort of thing, come out on Wednesdays.

Sunday is going to be hot! Bring lots of water. Let's meet at 3pm, bring a light shirt and a dark shirt.

Pickup Game, 6pm, Willamette Park Today

Well, this 20% rain isn't going to hurt us today. Sunday, it poured up until about 4:05 and then we had a completely clear game - even saw the sun. Our fairweather crew kept us at fives, which was a blast. I forgot what a small game felt like on a Sunday.

Anyhood, let's meet at 6pm today at Willamette Park. Bring a light shirt and a dark shirt.

Sunday, July 17, 2011

It is pouring - to play or not to play? UPDATE: Playing

I'm not sure if this rain will clear up in time for the game. If it's pouring like this at 4pm, no game. If it's clear or just sprinkling then we're on. The rain is supposedly going to quit by the time late afternoon rolls around. Keep your collective fingers crossed.

I'll post when it's closer to game time for those of you in parts of Portland that might be experiencing different weather than in the SW.

Update: The weather is good enough for a game here in the SW. Hope to see you guys in an hour or so.

Pick-up Ultimate on Sunday, 4pm at Duniway Park

Hey guys,

Wednesday was a whole lot of fun and we did not get rained on! However, someone got hurt and it reminded me to suggest to players that they have health insurance if they're going to play because one injury can spell out mucho medical bills. Nevertheless, the player is doing okay and no medical attention was necessary.

Anyhoo, let's meet at 4pm at Duniway Park on Sunday. Bring a light shirt and a dark shirt.

Pick-up Ultimate Wed. 6pm, Willamette Park

Game at 6pm at Willamette Park tomorrow. If you haven't been to this field yet, it is a beautiful place to play and you should come have the experience. Bring a light shirt and a dark shirt.

Anyone want to start a game in the NE?

One of our players sent a tip via email that Buckman field in the close-in NE is a soft landing spot for a new game. There are rarely people playing there and the field is easy on the legs. It's a Parks and Recreation park, the same as Duniway and Willamette, so you can play there for free. If anyone is interested in doing tha please do! If you want to start a game but don't know how, please let me know and I can send you in the right direction. You can learn more about the location here.

Sunday Game Time is Changing to 4PM

Um, so, a soccer league has rented the field at Duniway from noon-4pm on Sundays. This means we will have to go earlier or later. I've decided later is better, so just a preliminary heads up that the game will be moving to 4pm until at least July 10th when the soccer league is done.

Hope everyone is having a good week! Don't forget there is a game today at 6pm at Willamette park.

We played our first game at Willamette Park last Wednesday - what a beautiful location! If you've ever dreamed of flying through the air to catch a frisbee in the setting sun, next to a shimmering body of water, then live the dream with us on Wednesdays. We had a great turnout.

This Sunday we might see a little sprinkle, but it will be great weather nonetheless. Meet at SW Duniway Park (corner of SW Barbur Blvd and SW Sheridan) at 1pm. Bring a light shirt and a dark shirt. I won't be there, so bring frisbees if you got'em and have a great game!
