We are excited to open up registration for our first Women's Indoor Ultimate Clinic! Come kick off the New Year with 2 hours of skills, drills and scrimmage with your fellow KU ultimate women! We have a fabulous contingent of experienced women's ultimate players ready to help you take your playing to the next level!
When you register please put a comment in the notes section letting us know whether you want to be in the Fundamentals or Advanced group.
1) Ultimate Fundamentals (beginner players and/or relatively new to the sport)
In the first hour, we'll have short periods of instructions followed by skills development drills. We will review the fundamentals of throwing mechanics (backhand/forehand), cutting techniques, effective person-person defence (force/downfield defensive positioning). In the second hour, we'll go over basic ultimate offensive and defensive strategy and spend time scrimmaging.
2) Advanced Ultimate Skills (for intermediate and advanced players; typically playing in Tier 1 or 2 and/or some tournament experience)
In the first hour, we'll have short periods of instructions followed by skills development drills. We will practice break-force throws, timing for up-fields throws, effective footwork for offensive cutting and defensive marking and throwing/receiving deep. In the second hour, we'll go over and practice advanced offensive plays for person-person play and then practice those and a few zone defences in a scrimmage.
