Learn to Compete Clinic: Durham, NC

Carolina Friends School’s (CFS) ultimate team will be hosting a fun day of ultimate on Saturday, December 9! CFS has been one of the strongest high school ultimate programs recently, playing in the last six state tournament finals, winning the past five. Many of the players involved in those victories will be coming back to coach this clinic.Schedule:

 

 

 

We’ll start with a clinic in the morning with coaching by high school players and returning alumni. Male coaches include former CFS players who now play for several top club and college teams including 2017 National College Champions CUT (Carleton College) and 3rd place Darkside (UNC Chapel Hill). Female coaches include members of the 2017 Youth Club Champion Warhawks and the 2016 US Junior National Team.

 

After a mid-day break, we’ll play a tournament with CFS players coaching "Hat Tournament" style teams. (The term ‘hat tournament’ comes from making teams randomly by drawing names out of a hat. For this tournament, we will strive to make the random teams somewhat evenly matched using information about players’ ages and experience.)
