Happy Canada Week

There will be no official practices this week – recover from a great Ho-Down weekend (and party), and have a happy Canada Day! Thanks to everyone who supported us during our fundraiser on Saturday evening.

Our next session is Monday, July 5 for fitness and throwing – if there's anything going on before that, we'll post it here!

Ho-Down Fundraiser

If you're going to the Ho-Down party tomorrow evening, save some room for "dessert"! Wild Rose will be selling jello shooters as a fundraiser, $3 for one or two for $5. Homemade by us, this ain't the jello your mom used to make ;)

Thurs, June 24 – Co-ed

This Thursday will be a joint practice with the guys. All ladies are welcome, we start at 6:30 pm at the Market Mall fields. See you tomorrow for some pre-Ho-Down fun!

Mon, June 21 – Fitness + Throwing

Fitness is on tonight, same time and place – meet at 6:30 pm at the bottom of the stairs. Bring a disc for throwing after. All ladies are welcome to join us (including non-ultimate ones)!

Co-ed on Sunday

Come join us for some competitive co-ed practice/scrimmage at Queen Elizabeth fields on Sunday. We'll be there at 11 am – bring a light and a dark! All ladies are welcome.

Thurs, June 17 – Cancelled

Practice tonight is cancelled. Enjoy the evening off, and join us on Sunday for some co-ed practice/scrimmage in better weather.

Weekly Practices

For the next few weeks, we are shifting to Monday night fitness/throwing and Thursday co-ed practices with Invictus and SirLoin. We will return to Tuesday and Thursday women's practices in mid July.

Continue checking here for practice details and last-minute changes, but for reference, here is a list of our planned practice dates leading up to CUC:

• Monday fitness: June 14, 21, July 5
• Thursday co-ed: June 17, 24, July 8
• Tuesday and Thursday women’s: July 13, 15, 20, 22, 27, 29, August 3, 5, 10

All ladies are welcome to join us for any of these practices, and feel free to bring a guy friend along to the co-ed ones :)

For fitness tomorrow night, we'll meet at the bottom of the stairs at 6:30 pm. If the weather isn't great, we'll carpool over to the Police Admin building for some indoor weights.

Early June Update

Hi ladies,

A few things to note as June begins:

Week after Flowerbowl
There will be no practices on June 8 or June 10. We will take a well-deserved break after playing all weekend in Vancouver!

Canadian Ultimate Championships
We are looking at going to Canadian Ultimate Championships (CUC) in Sherbrooke, from August 12-15.

If you are interested in playing CUC with Wild Rose, please send us an email by next Wednesday, June 9, and let us know that you're interested. Please let us also know if you are semi-interested, and what dependencies you may have (e.g., costs, work, practice commitment, etc.). We need to decide if we're going ahead with a CUC team by mid-June.

Estimated cost is ~$900:

• flight is ~$600 to Montreal
• there is a free shuttle from Montreal to Sherbrooke, and from the tourney hotels to the fields
• on-campus (on-site) housing is ~$45/night, which works out to ~$180 for 4 nights
• $25 for an Ultimate Canada membership
• ~$100 for CUC tournament fee
• + food and other misc. costs

Take some time to consider it, and in the meantime, send us email at calgarywomensultimate@gmail.com if you have any questions!

Thurs, June 3 – Pre-FB

This Thursday, we'll be running through our pre-tourney warm-up routine and scrimmaging. All ladies are welcome, we start at 6:30 pm at the Market Mall fields.
