exciting times ahead

I was very pleased recently to see this email in my inbox from the ‘powers that be’ of Cape Town Ultimate. Looks like there are exciting plans ahead to grow this great sport here in the mother city:

Hi fantastic ultimate players

We have been busy thinking, strategising and throwing forehands about how to harness the momentum in Ultimate at the moment. The starting of the Cape Town league two years ago was a great throw foreward, but now it is time to take Cape Town Ultimate to the next level.

Here is our two year strategy. Our goal - 50 competitive teams by January 2010. Read our strategy to see how we plan to achieve this attainable goal! A strategy is a good start, but it needs people to make it happen. Right now, we have a committed, but small group of players who run CPT ultimate. For us to evolve CPT ultimate to have 50 competitive teams, we need to give back to our amazing sport. If we all gave 1 hour a week, we have 2 virtual people working full time.

So read our strategy and decide how you'd like to contribute. If you are keen, but not sure how, then chat to me or Neal even if you only have 1 hour a month!

Woohoo! I’m waiting to see if the document can be put up on the CT ultimate website, so that you can all have a read and get excited. We already have LoveLife rolling out the game in all parts of the country (and have just secured a mold to make cheap discs here in SA), so it looks like interesting times for SA ultimate.

Keep the discs flying!
