If you love Ultimate Frisbee your in for a treat!

“It’s super exciting, definitely a great opportunity to showcase the sport here in Edmonton and for our players to be able to play on home turf,” said Dani Dugan, general manager of the Edmonton Ultimate Players Association.

Ultimate is a non-contact sport played on a soccer field where teams score points each time a player catches the flying disc in one of two end zones located at each end of the field. Its kind of like rugby mixed with soccer, football, and …frisbee.

The 2016 Canadian Ultimate Championships will be hosted from Aug. 8 to 14 at the Ivor Dent Sports Park on Ellerslie Road and 50 Street, bringing nearly 2,000 Ultimate athletes from across Canada to the city.

Regardless I can’t wait to see some Ultimate Frisbee action!
