  • From Coach Dan Kaplan:

    Interested in Ultimate Frisbee? If you have played, want to play, might want to play, or might know someone who might want to play Girls Ultimate Frisbee at ARHS** this spring, please come to a pre-season, fun, informational meeting:

     

    This Friday, March 4, at 3:40 PM in Room 117 

    Meet the coaches, hear about our plans for the season, requirements for participating, and schedule for tryouts. We will also have plenty of time to answer any of your questions (including “what is Ultimate Frisbee?!”)

     

    This meeting is open to all who are interested. Feel free to bring a friend who has never thought of a frisbee as anything other than a backyard toy!

     

    ** The girls' ultimate program welcomes all non-binary, trans, genderqueer, gender nonconforming, and agender athletes who feel comfortable on a girls' division team.

     

    Hope to see you all on Friday after school!!
