Whether you're a seasoned club player or a new player just playing
pickup, there is something you wish was better about Ultimate.

I wish there were better and more organized resources online so I can
find what I'm looking for quickly and efficiently.

What's your wish?

Anyone else like me? Do you want to watch the EIGHT best
SPRING WILMINGTON 8's games* live on the web?

I'd pay $5.00-$10.00 to see that! How much would you pay?

*The weekend that the top 8 college teams, attending
Wilmington 8's, play.

2. making a living coaching ultimate


3. Also, would be cool to participate in a reffed open
division club tourney. gets old playing in a "national
championship" where people get to call it how they like.
it's bush league. let the players do what they do best:
play.


damn, those are three awesome wishes. too bad I am on the

mines coming true.....thanks to the oua. cant wait to see how those
upa kooks come to terms with observers making active calls that are
subjective in nature at 2010 college nationals.........which,
ACCORDING TO THEM, is what distiguishes an evil ref form an observer.

Why do you need to wait 6-8 months?

Start recruiting more players NOW! And, starting coaching
them indoors (if possible).

that is exactly my point ilk69. Everyone that cares a lot
about what they are doing and are very competitive will have
trouble making the best call during the heat of battle. You
think I am saying I have never made any bad calls? Open up
your mind and actually have some knowledge of what is going
on in the club open game at the highest levels. It gets old
playing in a national championship where people call what
they want. I guess I am just tired of being frustrated by
the soft calls that many players make. let the game be
physical. that is why I love having Mike G, Troy Revell, and
Jason Weddle observing games because they let the players
play.


Ilk69 who you be? you play with anybody? where you witness
my "sleazy" calls? I am curious because I can't remember
making any in awhile. It's called enjoying playing physical
and wishing others would do the same. gotta go get stronger
just in case we are allowed to push and shove a little out
there!

i wish the UPA wouldn't waste the paper it takes to send me a snail
mail reminder to renew my UPA membership next year.

if you are going to send me a reminder, do it online. i'm going to
ignore it anyway, so at least we can save the paper.

what do you mean by this. i mean, do they have any other choice?
they have NO control over what the players call so the dont really
"let" them do anything..........the players "let themselves play" no?
granted they do expidite referals in a much more efficient manner but
i fail to see how they allow or restrict their physicality. Now if ya
make em full on refs then YEA, the refs can control that but even mike
will tell you there is a ton of downfield contact that he would be
obligated to rule as fouls that the players let go. But its obviously
when things get heated and chippy that will wreeck havock on such a
"player controled" system.

and steve, i'm still up to lend a hand with trying to organize a
reffed college event. how about you? I mean, shit, if we are the
only ones actively callin for refs here then shouldnt we do somthing
to help bring about that end. and me, being completely out of the
sceene, theres only so much i can do. You got the connections. hook
it up. have whistle, will travel.

how could i have no idea when i witnessed it myself? are you trying
to say you have control over a player making a bogus call....or an
overtly aggreesive foul(to stop flow). You might be a deterant to a
"tit for tat" scenerio that can easily escilate with no officials but
you are still a secondary mechanism when it comes to tactical fouls
and calls. traveling you can control....i suceed to that. by "you" i
mean uoa comp......not upa comp (as of yet anyways).

its not about sotg at all....its more about making a distinction
between the traditional observer role in ultimate, that of the newly
refined uoa officials and a fully active "referee". how do you get
sotg out of that?

While not nearly as high quality as the feed from Club Nationals this
year, you can find someone who has a high end smartphone and broadcast
the game live using either Qik or Ustream. If you find someone with a

nope. not sure who ilk69 is but am curious what he is
talking about or referring to. I just like to play
physical, I know that much. Toad, what I am talking about
is those three observers overturn weak/soft/phantom foul
calls that happen all the time in ultimate, especially very
competitive games.
