Pour info, y'a rien à leur connaissance au Ghana, ils seraient même preneur de conseils, à voir, Marie serait peut-être intéressée, à voir aussi.
Moi j'ai a priori gagné une mission pour le Panama, qui devrait commencer dans 2-3 semaines, pour 1,5 mois, puis retour en France ou au Mali 3 mois, puis 2 mois au Panama.
Bref ça va être chargé mais on va essayer de tout faire.

Hi Rodrigue 

With Madventurer this is our first year running a Ultimate Frisbee project, as far as we are aware there are no established teams in the country currently. This is something that we hope to change in the future. 

The overall aim of the project is to build a base level of knowledge about the sport so that ultimate can continue to grow in the country after we have left, to do this we need to be able to provide the resources to each school that we work in such as discs and cones. 

Currently we are aiming to travel to twelve schools in the Volta region of the country over a 6 week period, at the end we aim to run a mini tournament between the schools we have worked in so the children gain a full understanding of what the sport is really like.

If you could offer some advice about coaching in a different country this would be extremely grateful, At the moment we are at the recruitment stage of our project so if you know of any volunteers that may be interested in joining our project please spread the word.

Regards

Kelly Martin

Hi Kelly,

I am from Discs for All, a newly officially formed NGO in France that aims to develop frisbee where it's needed and we've done a good deal for work in Mali last year for example, starting 4 to 5 teams and the first ever Bamako Ultimate league this year (links in my signature below - most of them in French for now am afraid). We have a project with Right to Play and Born Fonden there as well, aiming at girls in villages where frisbee would be a mean to educate the children, in line with what you seem to be doing.
We are in touch with a few countries some that need help, others not. Amandine in copy knows of two Americans (a couple) who would be keen to go somewhere help with growing Ultimate somewhere in Africa so they might be interested by your message - we'll pass it on to them.

As Ultimate is our focus and as we haven't been in touch with Ghana yet, we would be interested in knowing more about Ghana Ultimate : is your Ultimate camp a one off or you have similar initiatives elsewhere ? Do you know of Ultimate being played in Ghana on a regular basis with teams and /or clubs ?

I don't want to ask too many questions but obviously we would like to hear more about what you do there and see if we could help / collaborate with you on a specific project or on a larger programme. The more the merrier !

Looking forward to hearing from you then,

Cheers,

Rodrigue

Dear all
The Christmas holidays are only just over and I bet your thinking about what you are going to do this summer?
Fancy taking your Frisbee skills and knowledge to Ghana, think you have what it takes to teach children the in's and out's of Ultimate?
Then look no further...

While your 'revising' or 'doing some really important research for you boss', check out the link below and help introduce a new sport to a country!

Le ghana, c'est la ou Right TO Play est entré en contact avec une boite de plasturgie pour faire des frisbees.
Rien a voir avec le sujet, mais peut etre interessant si un groupe est créé au ghana, de leur faire tester les frisbees, plutot qu'attendre qu'un malien de RTP aille la-bas.
A priori les derniers essais etaient pas top.

Oui c'est une bonne idée, je leur en parlerai.
Peux-tu nous donner plus d'infos sur tes ricains et leur motivation / disponibilité / budget ?
Où sont-ils en ce moment ?
Merci,
Rodrigue
