Raleigh, N.C.: It's an ultimate Frisbee doubleheader! Learn how to throw a disc and play the game of ultimate, then stay and watch defending 2015 men's champions UNC-Chapel Hill take on 2014 champions Colorado in a crucial pool play matchup.
The 2016 USA Ultimate College Championships take place over Memorial Day weekend from Friday to Monday at WRAL Soccer Park in Raleigh NC. A special "Learn To Play" clinic is being held Saturday, May 28th from 10:00am to noon.
The clinic is free to kids (ages 8-16) and their parents and includes admission to the tournament. Sign- up information below.
Learn To Play is a fun, fast, moving clinic for both experienced players and kids that have never thrown a Frisbee ever. The clinic is at WRAL and will take place near the central Bull Durham Stadium. Come dressed in t-shirt and shorts wearing sneakers or soccer cleats.
After the clinic, kids and parents can attend games for the rest of the afternoon, including what should be a hugely entertaining contest between UNC-Chapel Hill and the University of Colorado. The game is on field 17 at WRAL starting at 2:30.
Semi-finals and finals will be on Sunday (5/29) and Monday (5/30) and will be covered by ESPN. For more tournament information, go to triangleultimate.org/championship
