The team practices for two hours on Mondays and Wednesdays at either 5:30 or 6:30pm at the Wayzata High school turf field. Games are on Thursdays at 5:30 p.m. both at home and across the metro as a part of the Minnesota Spring High School Ultimate League. The Minnesota Spring High School League season is approximately 8 weeks long, starting in early April and concluding the first weekend in June. Both the Open and Girls divisions have multiple tiers of competitive play at the state tournament, each crowning its own champion. At the beginning of the season, each team has a chance to play into the top tier of competition regardless of the previous year's results. <strong><br></strong></p><p><strong>About Ultimate Frisbee:</strong> "What is ultimate?" as defined by the USA Ultimate Board of Directors? The USA Ultimate Board of Directors believes that one key factor that defines ultimate is that the players need to be the ones in control. The definition of ultimate developed by the board at the 2001 strategic planning meeting is as follows: "Player defined and controlled non-contact team sport played with a flying disc on a playing surface with end zones in which all actions are governed by the 'Spirit of the Game."</p><p><strong>Time commitment:</strong> The season is short (just two months long) but a lot is packed into that time. Please make every effort to attend as many practices and tournaments as possible. If you know you will be missing practices, games or tournaments, please email at least a week ahead of time so we can cancel or adjust plans if more than just a few players are missing. This is especially important if we have an A & B team. Note that practice times and location are subject to change. Season runs mid- March through the beginning of June. <strong><br></strong></p><p><strong>Equipment Requirements: </strong>Each player must own a pair of cleats. Soccer style cleats are most common, but football receiver cleats or lacrosse cleats also work. Players will need a pair of jerseys for league games and tournaments.

It offers practice of previously learned concepts to keep skills sharp and build confidence. A pre-test will be sent in mid-June for each student to fill out the questionnaire to individualize their program. Students will then receive nine weeks of materials. Each week’s packet will include five math lessons with problem-solving activities. The activities will apply to a specific math concept or strand. After the student has completed a packet, they will mail it in. We’ll make corrections, provide feedback and mail it back. Students may start and finish the course at their own pace throughout the strands. </p><p>All packets must be returned by August 11 to ensure timely feedback for the 2024-2025 school year.</p><p>Registration closes June 25.</p>Jr. Target Games Engineeringhttp://wayzata.ce.eleyo.com/course/8521/youth-classes-summer-2024/jr-target-games-engineering2024-02-05T00:00:00-06:00<p>Welcome to a week of precision, innovation, and engineering excitement at the Jr. Target Games Engineering Camp!</p><p>Young engineers-in-the-making will embark on a thrilling journey where the art of hitting the target or goal meets the world of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).
