One of the best and easiest ways to get better at ultimate when you aren’t actually playing ultimate is to watch high-level ultimate videos. Here are a stack of good ones to dive into!

Travel team homework!
This is a great game from a while back between two of the top women’s club teams in ultimate- Boston Brute Squad and the San Francisco Fury. Travel team players should watch the whole game this week- get your family involved if you can!
Some things to look for include how the handlers move and where they stand on the field, how the cutters set up their stack down the field and how they cut from there, and the types of cuts that both positions make. How about how they always have an easy option in the backfield? Pick a player and watch her throughout a point to see how to move.
Special note- #52 on Brute Squad is Caitlin O’Connell, who is local to the Portland area and is a rostered member of the Portland Rising professional ultimate team.
Frolic Ultimate for the win!
It was pretty awesome seeing a Falmouth Rogue disc pop up on the feed of Portland Frolic, a local high-level club team for women and non-binary people.
Roll Frolic!
Roll Falmouth Rogue!

Rainy day- back at it!
I think we can skip running for today, given how chilly and rainy it is outside. If you can get out to throw- get in your 100 backhands, 100 forehands, 50 hammers, and 50 scoobers. Then kick back and soak up these highlight videos.
Roll Falmouth!
Never give up; never let up
This video is older, so the resolution is a bit dimmer than more-modern clips, but it’s still worth the watch. During the 2008 Women’s Club Finals, San Francisco Fury was playing Seattle Riot and was losing 10-1, before going on a 14 point scoring run that had them winning the game 15-12.
I have been on both sides of big come-back games, but never anything like this.
THIS is why you NEVER give up if you are losing.
And THIS is why you NEVER let up if you are winning. The game is not over until the last point is scored.
A beautiful day for a virtual practice!
What a day Falmouth Rogue!
We’ll all be heading out today at 3pm for our individual team runs- again- NO MEETING UP WITH ANYONE ELSE! The only people you are allowed to jog with are people living in your home- so it’s cool to drag along your sibling or mom or dad for the jog, but not with a friend or neighbor.
We are running to Playlist # 2 today- again, no worries if you are not able to run with music. Just head out for a jog that lasts at least 20 minutes.
After you get back from your run, it’s time to throw- 100 forehands, 100 backhands, 50 scoobers, 50 hammers. Then spin the disc on each hand for one minute, then it’s game time!
Today we’re watching a game between Boston’s Brute Squad and San Francisco Fury for the 2019 National Championship Semis. Players should watch at least 30 minutes of the game- bonus points if you see the whole game.
Roll Falmouth!

With Falmouth Rogue now graduating high school seniors up into the world of college ultimate, this is a perfect time to share highlights from the recent 2019 College Championships. The state of the college game is strong and getting stronger. I can’t wait to see our players start to show up in highlight reels like this! It won’t be long.
