2008 Women's clinic

The Fairbanks women are organizing a women's clinic open to all skill levels for the summer of 2008 at the SRC (by UAF Patty Center). The dates are yet to be determined, so be sure to check back for updated information. There will be basic skills, introduction of Ultimate strategy, introduction and running of some drills, scrimmaging, etc. All that you would expect out of an Ultimate clinic. Fairbanks ladies are highly motivated to get more new women into the sport, so beginners are highly encouraged to attend. There will be some old pros on hand to help out the beginners, and to pick up some new skills themselves. Contact Erin Carr at erinlcarr-at-yahoo-dot-com
