Grades 6-8

Location: Fisher Hill Multi Use Athletic Field | Fisher Ave, Brookline, MA, 02445

Description:

This middle school (grades 6-8) travel Ultimate program in collaboration with the Boston Ultimate Disc Alliance (BUDA) is designed for all students, including those new to Ultimate and experienced Ultimate players. Coaches teach Ultimate skills, strategy, rules and how to respect others on the field through drills, games and activities.

Players will be divided into age and skill appropriate groups that will practice together and play games against groups from other area BUDA groups.

If enough girls register and are interested, there will be a girls only group. 

 Mid-week practice sessions will focus on skill development including throwing, catching, cutting and defense and basic team strategy. Sunday afternoon sessions will be games against other area BUDA groups with approximately half of the games taking place in Brookline and half taking place in nearby towns within a 30-45 minute drive. 7th and 8th graders will have the opportunity to play in a tournament in Greenfield, MA on 27 April 2024 and there will be an end of season BUDA tournament with the date and location TBD. 

 Each player will receive a disc as part of their registration and custom jerseys will be available to order. Cleats are recommended for all Ultimate players and will be required for the more experienced/older group of players.
