No Experience? No Problem.
Almost everyone on our team started college having never thrown a frisbee before! We don't have tryouts for newcomers—if you want to play, learn, and have fun, you are on the team. All we need from you is to show up, we'll handle (no pun intended) the rest.
1. How Do I Start?
You can literally just show up! Look out for flying discs (frisbees, not UFOs) at the practice field during any of our scheduled times. Also keep and eye out for similar strange sightings on the main quad; you are welcome to throw with us between classes too!
You don't need to sign up, RSVP, or register in advance. Just introduce yourself to anyone throwing, and we'll get you plugged in right away.
2. What Should I Bring?
You only need a few basic things for your first practice:
- Athletic clothing (dress for the weather!).
- Running shoes (or soccer/football cleats if you have them).
- A water bottle.
- A light shirt AND a dark shirt (this makes dividing up for scrimmages easy).
3. Still Nervous? Reach Out!
It is completely normal to feel hesitant about showing up to a new club and trying a new sport. If you want a friendly face to meet you before practice, or have any questions at all, let us know!
