Information for Players
Whether or not you play on a school team, MoHo is the perfect place for you to learn and play the game of Ultimate. Players of all skill levels are welcome. . .MoHo is for players who want to become better, play hard, and have fun.
If you can come every week, come every week. If you can come only once a month, once every other season, or once a year, don't fret. . .come when you can, and we'll welcome you back.
Practices consist of warmups, drills and techniques, and games. Skills will range from the very basic to the very intricate. While we build on what we learn each week, each practice is designed to be open to beginning players as well. There are generally at least two coaches at every session so that we can meet the needs of players of all experience levels.
- Examples of basic skills: rules of Ultimate, throwing, different ways to catch the disc, reading the flight of the disc, how to move/jump/run/fake, and how to see the field.
- Examples of intermediate/advanced skills: zone offense and defense, and defensive skills such as poaching, switching, and marking.
What should you bring to MoHo?
- A light shirt and a dark shirt so that you can match the color of your teammates during scrimmage.
- Soccer cleats, if you have them (no metal cleats, please). These prevent you from slipping on wet terrain. If you don't have cleats, wear tennis shoes.
- Plenty of water
- Non-cotton athletic layers. Cotton soaks up moisture, and as we know, it can rain during any Seattle season. Layers are important because the weather can change at any moment, and we'll transition a lot between running and non-running activities. No jeans, please!
- Weather-appropriate clothing. Dress appropriately for the weather on the day of practice. We don't want to see people in shorts when it's 40 degrees and pouring outside. If it's cold and/or wet, bring a rain coat, rain pants, compression gear (tights and long sleeves), a heavy jacket, gloves, hat, etc.
- Sunscreen. Whether it's hot or cold outside, that sun can burn!
- A disc (optional). We will provide some practice discs, but if you have a favorite, please bring it. Make sure to write your name on it with a permanent marker!
