Get a bigger field!

I apologize for the lack of entries here by the Buzzard’s Scribe. It’s been a great week of Ultimate weather since last week’s heat wave. The temperatures dropped about 20 degrees in two successive days late last week and we got in some good games.

Yesterday was a watershed day for the BPUC. We had 16 players on the field! The surprising thing about this is that I called the game yesterday morning only having confirmations for 6. Then right before I went out I got two more and knew we’d have at least 8. I wandered out on the field to find we had almost 3 full teams we could have run out there. And while it was somewhat crowded, it was great to have so many players.

We definitely need to get the pennies ordered now to be able to tell who is who on the teams. The light and dark strategy has seemed to work okay most days but if anybody wants to spearhead the ordering of the pennies, get with Annette. Somebody needs to find a source and then she’ll help with the spending of the money.

One other note; there have been several leg injuries of late that at the layman’s eyes look like they might have been prevented by some good stretching. I don’t think we’re going to get to where we’re taking any of our playing time to do this but I hope you’ll try and do it before you start on your own. Here’s a link that might be helpful

Thanks to everybody who came out yesterday. We had 1 newcomer, Chris (brought by Brady), most of the regular cast of rogues – Mallard, Carom, Steve Irwin, Camo, Wings, Visor, Floater, Jason & Running Man. Good to see some other faces that hadn’t been out in a while – Brook, Brian, & Tag. Forecast for today: mid 70’s, beat the lacrosse players to the North Field and another great game!
