Belfast Ultimate

BUG returned to Belfast having had a very successful weekend away at the Cork Open on and off the pitch. We returned with both the plate (finished 9th overall) and won the fancy dress prize for our 'Cool Runnings' (and Mexicans) costumes.

Once in a while, it's nice to get a bit of recognition and especially if it's from those on high. And so it was this year for Belfast Ultimate which was nominated for Biggest Contribution to Ultimate in Ireland by the Irish Flying Disc Association, the governing body for Ultimate in Ireland.

If you weren't there on Tuesday night, The second half of the summer league kicked off, But not as planned. We (LDW) where meant to be playing Deep Heat but they couldn't field a team (probably due to the absence of Pete and his organisational skills, I'm sure he's having a great time in Vancouver .... who ever heard of an Irish frisbee team?) and that left

Belfast Ultimate Summer League is being extended. The additional dates are Tuesday evenings on 5th 12th and 19th August, and Saturday 30th August.

We had heard the rumours that they were like energiser bunnies on speed but they started slowly, very slowly, wet batteries probably. In fact they didn’t even show up for our 11am game so it wasn’t until about 2pm that we managed to reschedule the game and boy did we regret it!
