My summer ultimate season came to a great end this week, as my Monday night team won our division’s finals. This time last year, most of us were still ‘newbies’ and we had just finished a 1-9 season. We were all still learning how to flick a disc and figure out what a ‘stack’ was. ;) After playing together over the last year, our play has slowly, but surely improved. The game was hard-fought and pretty intense throughout, but in the end we came out on top 14-10! As usual, the girls made the difference and secured our win for us.
Of course, to celebrate--as shown by the pics above, we all had to go enjoy some wings and drinks to properly end the season... ;)... I even got a nice surprise when we went to pick up our prizes at the Docks on Thursday night. As winners, we all received some long-sleeve shirts, another disc (woo!), and I got a $25 gift certificate to Sporting Life for my work as captain. Still, I wonder what that will actually buy me at that store--have you seen how much everything is? :P
Unfortunately, the Tuesday night team didn't fare as well this summer. Generally, the team had newer players, so they were learning a lot just like the team from last year. With a bit more seasoning, I'm sure this bunch will be just as good.
