Ultimate Frisbee
Come try something new!
Ultimate Frisbee is a fun, fast-paced game where you get to run, throw, and catch a flying disc with your friends (Activity) . It teaches teamwork and fairness, as players make their own calls without referees.
This could be the Activity you need for your CAS if you are in Grade 11 or 12. If this is new to you…you could achieve the outcome “challenge and new skills” or “ethics” because there is no referee.
