The ConferenceFriday May 16th to Monday May 19th
We envision having a number of high level teams from different divisions
in the Quebec and Ontario competitive scene all getting
together for a pre-season bonding session. It's an
excellent opportunity to get your
team away from their home city and spend a weekend
together developing chemistry for the upcoming season.
At the same time, it will be a great
chance to see friends in the ultimate scene from other
teams to hang-out and party but also to gain skills,
ideas and knowledge from each other
and the presenters. An athletic therapist will be on
site for the conference to help with any questions
or injuries.
From Friday evening to Monday afternoon, your team will get a cabin-style
residence with heat and running water (showers, etc.). All meals will
be provided by the camp and we (tournament organizers) provide the beer.
The cost per player is $200 (that's for all food, drink, accommodation,
recreation over 3 days!).
Oh ya, and we've added great things like having guest speakers,
trainers, professionals, top level coaches and a whole
lot of fun!
The pursuit of excellence
As a team you get allocated field & gym
space/time to practice on, run drills, scrimmage
and generally fine tune your team. You live in a
cabin
alongside your team mates in an environment that
will help you to
build a lasting chemistry for the season.
There will
be various speakers on topics including sport psychology,
leadership, strategy, training;
and clinics on taping (e.g. your ankle), throwing & freestyle.
Plus the sports camp has facilities for basketball,
volleyball, tennis, canoeing, campfires, even a climbing
wall and zip line!
Individuals who sign up with be grouped on a hat
team which will have an experienced coach to lead
you through various drills, skills and training.
And you will have the same presenters and activities
available to you.
During this same time you are being bombarded by
some of the best information available on how to
raise the level of your game!
There has never been anything this good for getting
your season off to a running start ever offered!
Making history
Hosted at Camp Olympia outside of Huntsville, in
the past this has been a
small tourney and in steady decline, which is how
we (The
Ultimate Experience) came to take it over
this year. We are attempting to revitalize it by
changing it into a Eastern Canadian Conference for
Competitive Ultimate. Something that has not existed
in Canada yet, and which something similar has only
recently happened in the States.
Using the facilities at Camp Olympia to host teams
from Ontario and Quebec (and beyond?) for a weekend
of sessions ranging from team building and bonding,
to sessions with trainers and coaches. In addition,
teams will be allowed to use the space
for training and activities designed by themselves.
The goal is to draw together the various teams
in the community, allow them to trade ideas and
knowledge, and hopefully get a better start to
the season than many often do. We might even
get in the odd actual game or two of ultimate!
