Let the Spring Season Begin!

The spring semester is in full swing and we have a promising season ahead of us! Last week we started classes and had our first couple of practices. This was very exciting because we had a lot of girls return after being gone fall semester, so we got our full squad together for the first time!

This weekend we kicked off tournament season by hosting our annual indoor tournament, Trouble in the Bubble. This year we had eight women’s teams – a combination of high schools, colleges, and club women – come from around the twin cities area to play on our awesome new turf field! We also made history as this tournament was the first event EVER to be held in the new dome!

Ninjas rockin' the dome

The Ninjas spent most of the weekend splitting up and playing with other teams that needed a few more players, and we got to play a few games with just Ninjas as well. It was a great experience for all of our players to get to know other women in the ultimate community, practice playing with other teams, and especially for our new girls just to get lots of playing time! And of course it was a great time for lots of team bonding!

We had quite a few high school parents come up to us this weekend and thank us for putting on the tournament and giving young women this opportunity to play with and learn from older players, get more experience and have fun! This really meant a lot to us and we're glad the participants enjoyed the tournament because we had a blast doing it!

Our next big tournaments aren't until March, so until then we'll be buckling down and training hard! We had such a good season last year, and we can't wait to come back and show 'em what we've got this year!!

Until next time,
Ninja

What a good-looking group of ladies!

TROUBLE IN THE BUBBLE!

Hey all you Ninja sports fans!

Hope you all are enjoying the New Year so far. 2011 was a good year for the Ninjas. We enjoyed a fruitful spring, winning the Chicago invite and finishing 6th overall in the North Central Region. Fall of 2011 has been equally as prosperous, awarding us with several new promising players who carried us to victory at Exit 69 2011. We are looking forward to 2012 and all the adventures and challenges in store for us. We are very excited for our busy spring tournament schedule:

January 21 and 22 the Ninjas will be hosting our annual indoor tournament, Trouble in the Bubble, this year in the new Beirman Turf Dome on our Minneapolis campus. The tournament will host 6 college and 6 high school teams for competitive, fun play and clinic workshops.

March will be a busy month for the Ninjas.
On March 3rd and 4th we will be in St. Louis for Midwest Throwdown.
We start our our Spring break on the 10th at the Music City Mash-up in Nashville, TN and hope to spend the rest of the week at High Tide, session II, in Brunswick, GA. Then after one week off to study and (hopefully) do laundry, we end our busy month on the 31st in Chicago for the Chicago Invite.

Stay tuned for more high-flying, butt-kicking Ninja action!

Stay classy internet,

1st Practice Tomorrow!!

Hey Ninja sports fans!

Tomorrow is our first official practice of our Fall 2011 season! We will be practicing from 4-6 on the West Bank Law Fields on the West bank of the U of M campus. If you want to practice with us, please fill out the Sports Clubs Participation Waiver prior to practice. It can be found here on the right side of the page under "Other information". Please bring a water bottle,  cleats or outdoor running shoes, a disc if you have one and a black and white shirt.

If you have any questions please email us at ninjawomensultimate@gmail.com

See you Ninjas there!

No Practice week of 9.12.11!

Alright, here's the skinny on this week. The officers are working their butts off trying to get all of the paperwork together so we can hold an official practice but until all the bureaucratic nonsense is complete we can't officially practice as a team. HOWEVER... we will be at the Student Union Activities Fair coming up this Wednesday (9.14) from 10am-2pm at Coffman Memorial Union. We will most likely be throwing a disc and wearing our stunna Ninja jerseys so come find us and say hey! We are trying to get practices going as soon as possible but until then we also will have a throwing date every Friday from 11-2 on the mall so come throw with us!

Remember, a good frisbee player is never without her disc. So don't let me catch you out on campus without yours!
