An Ultimate Frisbee Club has recently been formed at Jonathan Law.
The club is run by freshman Zack Chesson and his father, Robert Chesson, who played ultimate frisbee in college
The Ultimate Frisbee Club is a great place to improve your skills and meet new people that also enjoy playing the sport and it’s for all skill levels and they hope lots of people come.
“I want to improve my frisbee skills and become a better team player,” junior Anthony DeBenedet said.
The club hopes to scrimmage other schools in the spring. They already have one scrimmage planned against St. Joseph’s High School and hope to get cross-town rival Foran to also make a club so that they can face off against them.
‘I’m hoping that we get to scrimmage against other teams, but also that we do well and have fun,” senior Melissa Chodziutko said.
The club’s first two meetings were at 7 p.m. on the turf under the lights. Meeting lasted between an hour and an hour and a half. The club hopes to meet every Tuesday.
“It’s a rockin’ time,” junior Matthew Marino said.
The club focuses heavily on respecting the game and being honest. Everyone is there to have fun be competitive but also practice good sportsmanship.
“The community that ultimate frisbee has is similar to the community that Law has created,” Chesson said.
So far, the club has a wide variety of members ranging from freshmen to seniors. Both boys and girls are in the club.
“Multiple friends came up to me and told me I should join and I took their word for it,” junior Matt Tournas said.
The Ultimate Frisbee Club is always looking for new members of any ability level.
