Grass Burn 2008
Frontier Frisbee
Return to Ultimate
On the weekend of May 17th-18th, the team hosted their 6th annual Grass Burn tournament. We went with a Western theme, but the blitering heat prevented us from wearing our lovely felt vests (thanks Shari!) for longer than the first few points. We got a lot more use out of the cowboy hats!
The finals were an exciting repeat of the previous year, once again pitting my brother's team, Terra Nova HS's Diskfunctional against the local pickup team (who had won both of the previous two tournaments, and last year by only a single point). Scot's team prevailed in the end, but we awarded the trophy to Castro Valley HS's The Red Hand, as they were the highest-placing team comprised of all high school players. Air Traffic Control also surprised a mostly Redwood HS team to make it into the semi-finals, our highest finish yet!
