A few months ago, I was interviewed for a piece on tips to throw a frisbee for Woman’s Day Magazine. I was excited to see how it turned out and I must say that they did a great job with the article! (more…)
My first morning in Israel was spent meeting some of the other coaches – Chechik, Tomer, Daniel, and Alon. They were running frisbee workshops for a kids summer camp so I just observed them to get an idea of the Fresh Ultimate program, which I would be a part of for the first 2 weeks of my trip. (more…)

The 5th day of competition at the 2018 US Open Overall was a full one since we were forced to move Self Caught Flight to Friday after being rained out on Thursday. Self Caught Flight is my favourite event and I was just worried we wouldn’t get it in so I’m happy they had room in the schedule. (more…)

Well Day 2 definitely did not go as planned. My goal was to get up after a good rest (since the previous night I slept only 2 hours in the after arriving at 5am from the airport). Unfortunately, I got to bed quite late and after hitting snooze on my alarm a few times, finally woke up at 10:22am, more than one hour past the starting time for disc golf. (more…)
I arrived around 5am to Tallahassee after driving 4 hours from the Atlanta airport immediately following a delayed flight. Good times! (more…)

During one of my recent frisbee workshops, I had a grade 4 student tell me that I was her hero. I have never been called a hero before so after looking up the definition and doing a bit of research on what a hero is, I share my thoughts on what it means to be a hero. (more…)
