We broke into two teams for an intense Ultimate Frisbee match.
Regular UF rules with the twist that you had to perform the pull with your non-dominant hand.
We added the rules that the team with the extra man would give up the receiver if they scored or if the team with a man down scored they got 2 points.
The parallels between ultimate frisbee and the Sandhill Crane’s behavior were unmistakable:
Gliding Passes – Just as Sandhill Cranes gracefully glide across the skies, we practiced fluid passing to maintain momentum (Good Hands)
High-Flying Catches – The cranes’ leaping displays during courtship dances inspired several heroic grabs (Achilles)
Formations and Cuts – Like a flock migrating in V-formation, we worked on precise cuts and positioning to maximize efficiency and teamwork (Mouthful and Almost)
Highlights of the match included Lemon straight bodying Scoby on the sideline and Mouthful with the resurrection catch in the endzone and putting up solid defense against Achilles. Achilles, as always, demonstrating speed and agility akin to a crane dodging predators.
Our teamwork mirrored the cooperative flight patterns of these magnificent birds.
