Ultimate Clinics
June 23 / July 27
Posted by Joel on May 23, 2019
North 49 Throwing Coach and Ultimate Experience will be running two throwing clinics this summer! The first will be June 23rd and the second will be July 27th.
They are offering three different clinics both days; basics, advanced and hucking. Each will be 25 dollars but if you mention you are a member of KUL it will only run you 20 dollars.
All three will feature small groups and lots of personalized tips to help with form, improve throwing accuracy, and hopefully help reduce strain and end with personal video analysis of your throws.
If you're interested check out the first (June 23rd) event here: https://www.facebook.com/events/2257631637788374/?ti=as
And the second (July 27th) here: https://www.facebook.com/events/2149385131825387/?ti=as
Or you can go straight to Ultimate Experience's website to sign up.

Our process has changed this year and to register you must first create a league account at https://league.kingstonulti.ca/
Once you have an account all of the leagues that you are eligible for (based on age and gender) will show up in your Dashboard and you can then click on the link to register. For anyone under the age of 18 you will need to have your parent/guardian create an account and they will then be able to create a profile for you and register you for the youth/junior leagues.

Mini League is an introduction to ultimate and general sport movement. Every practice is split between 30 minutes of ultimate and 30 minutes of another sport (rugby, soccer, baseball, and movement games). Children will learn how to throw, run, and catch, and embrace the spirit of the game.

With a big emphasis on embracing the spirit of the game, each session features 40 minutes of learning and 20 minutes of play, as well as a snack. Each athlete will receive a t-shirt and disc to take home. Please register by April 26th to ensure that your child’s shirt will be ready for the first session.
