Bucket Disc

ultibucketThe name says it all.

The Ultimate Bucket

Info: If you've been to an Ultimate tournament, you've seen players toting around buckets. Waterproof, crush-proof, doubles as a seat...pretty good idea, right?

The Ultimate Bucket takes this idea & runs with it. Adding a more comfortable seat, a higher-quality lid, a pocket for easy access, and an ergonomic strap, our bucket is a tailor-made solution for every Ultimate player.

Price: $35.00

Overthrow Overview

frisbee overthrowWhole lotta talk about "overthrows" lately - especially in Sudan, Tunisia, Lebanon, Egypt & Yemen.

An OVERTHROW may result in a TURNOVER - in both government and Ultimate.

A government overthrow is a political game where a change in government happens due to force or a coup.
Of course, Ultimate is a passing game where a team throws the disc to teammates. An overthrow may happen bcs of a poorly thrown disc &/or good defense, and results in a change of possession.
