Frisbee Anyone?

[Puwa]

anyone out there interested in throwing a frisbee around before the cool season abandons us completely? i came across a neglected disc in the house and nostalgia came over me. CMU is a likely venue, or 700 year stadium, perhaps late one afternoon. why not? puwa

A good group of people already play. It's open to anyone (mainly men show up but also a few ladies). It's a wide mix of people (as well as Thai / Farng).

Payap University on Saturdays at 4:00.

thanks for the info, earl. i'll try to make it this saturday. do they play on that football field across from the indoor arena, or somewhere else?

[earlofwindermere]

Yes, they play on that field (the one on Ring Road - not the campus near McCormick). There were two groups before Christmas (one at CMU and one at Payap). We found out about each other and have been playing together since. The numbers vary each week but newcomers are always welcome. Just walk up and introduce yourself to someone and you'll find yourself on a team. Cheers. Won't be there this week but perhaps some other week I'll meet up with you.

fyi---

strong christian presence in that frisbee group.

i'm not making a judgement, just letting the OP know.

Are we talking about ultimate frisbee? Or just throwing around? Christians playing ultimate is something I want to see, usually it's a bunch of heathens! Seriously, ultimate is such a great game, I'd love to see it take hold in Thailand.

I did notice a quick prayer that a few guys did at the end of the game. But other than that, it seemed like a regular bunch of people.

Also, some of the guys are quite good so be prepared for a competitive game. (Although it's not necessary to be good to play)

Anybody else who, like me, had never heard of "Ultimate Frizbee" might be interested in this site: http://www.whatisultimate.com/

It looks an interesting and fun game.

Get yourself a Frisbee dog to make it even more fun p1p!

No shortage of dogs, just frizbees if the dogs play.

originally i was thinking of just throwing the disc around, but if a group is playing ultimate, i'm game. at least until my body tells me otherwise.

christian, buddhist, muslim, hindu, taoist, zoroastrian, atheist, agnostic, undecided, undeclared, disaffected, disinterested, disloyal, dissipated, distraught, distempered, dislocated -- let's hope it won't make a difference once the frisbees start flying.

[qwunk89]

last time before this thread disappears into the bowels of thai visa forum forever . . .

Anyone know where you can purchase a decent frisbee in Chiang Mai? I have checked at a couple sporting goods stores in Central but "no have".

Play ultimate every Saturday afternoon at CMU. 3.30pm on the field next to the softball fields. Between canal road and CMU clock tower. Sometimes play Wednesday too.

Guys, we have Yahoo group: http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/cmultimate/ - join, get all anouncements about games, ask Qs.

Normally we play Wed, 3:30 and Sat, 4:30, at CMU rugby or softball fields.

Sometimes some guys bringing new frisbees from BKK, you can preorder it. But for training and playing you need only shorts, t-shirt, cleats and ultimate frisbee spirit.

Don't worry about your level - we have players of all levels, from 0 to 5, everybody have fun.

Wait you on the field.

Ultimateeeeeee!
