Youth Ultimate Frisbee League - Youth Ultimate Frisbee League
The goal of Portland Ultimate is to introduce young people to the sport of ultimate frisbee and to foster a good “spirit of the game”. Practices include the basics of catching and throwing a frisbee, drills, and lots of time spent scrimmaging as a way of learning the game. Since the sport is self-officiated, practices will also include a rule-of-the-day. Drills and scrimmages will be broken into groups. At the middle school level, all genders play together. Some weeks, Portland Ultimate will play other middle school teams from Greater Portland towns but we will also do “in-house” games. Games will be played within age groups. The league focuses on the following goals: • To teach all participants the fundamentals of Ultimate Frisbee. • To provide a fun environment that will help children grow emotionally, socially, and physically. • To provide a positive experience for all participants. Schedule: Portland Ultimate will begin in late April as soon as the fields are dry. Practices: Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:00-7:30- April 28- June 11, 2025 Games: Will depend on the schedule of other towns.
