pickup games on hiatus

[Cedric Puleston]

Hi all,

After some consideration and consultation with some of the regulars at the Ticks Ultimate pickup game I think it makes sense to put the Sunday and Wednesday games on hiatus for a while. We are probably in a very important phase of the coronavirus pandemic (although without widespread testing the number of deaths is our only real indicator, despite the time lag) and anything we can do to limit non-essential social contact right now limits the risk to ourselves, our friends and families and others.

I found this series of tweets from DC Ultimate coach Darryl Stanley pretty persuasive. We all want to play. But sometimes we have to take steps to protect ourselves and others even if the consequences of carrying on aren’t always apparent and we want to take the chance that nothing bad happens:
