Leading up to YHCs Q of Ultimate, a request came in from Abacus to allow for a soccer game to be played in the extra field.  The hope was to gain enough interest to have the soccer game fully populated while also easing the size of the Ultimate game.  Unfortunately, we didn’t get enough interest for the soccer game and 2 games of Ultimate took shape.  Kudos to Abacus for attempting to create some “game” diversity to perhaps draw a different group of enthusiasts and keep things interesting.

Warm Up: 

  • good mornings, willie mays haze, franks

The Workout:

  • 2 Games of Ultimate, 4 teams.
  • Variables for Gameplay
    • Game Start involved each team lining up at their endzone line with a sprint to the middle where the disc was set.  The first team to get the disc got to start their move to the opposing endzone.
    • On Score, there was no “kick-off”, instead the disc was immediately turned over to the opposing team to start their advance to the other side.
    • No Workouts on drops or scores were included
Mary: None

FNGs: Gatorade and Hotwheels

Announcements:

  • Sombrero getting close on a service day from the Town of Holly Springs
  • Look out for an opportunity to volunteer for HollyFest.
    • Setup, F3 Tent Time, Tear Down, Town Support

Prayer:

  • No OYO – In F3 Speak that means Not On Your Own.  We are part of a community here and we should act as a shoulder to hold up the guy next to us.  If you need help, ask for it.  If you see someone in need, dont wait to be asked.  The cause for sudden loss of Hayden Panettiere (36) has yet to be determined but the news reports on her history with depression, alcholism, and domestic violence.
  • 2.0s return to school and some off to college.  Keep them safe and provide them with the strength required to get back into the swing of school.

STANDARDS for AO’s (Even UFO)

/in /by

FNG: Doogie!  Welcome

Warm-up: 5:15am sharp (SSH, Good Mornings, WMH, SFAC)

About the time we were doing GM’s and WMH…over 10 PAX were walking into the Warm-up circle.  YHC noticed a lack of urgency for being late.  We continued with the Mission Statement (3 burpee penalty) Tried again with the Mission Statement (3 burpee penalty). Core values 100% (no penalty) About this time based on the honor system of those that walked up late we did a raise of hands and counted by 5 per person late. Late to ME Burpee penalty administered by Q = 55.  Total Burpee Penalty for Standard infraction = 61. (Could be a horrible F3 record to keep)

Hence the PAX were warmed up for a 4 team split.  3 Merkins on the drop and 2 squats on the drop.  2 point scored if inside the goalie box. Lots of great catches, throws, hustle and knockdowns across the board!

Announcements: Q’em all challenge (QAC), Ruck sack for sale to raise money for QAC, Memorial Day Murph (Banana Seat), If your late to an AO…don’t walk.

T-Clapps:

Prayer: Family lost son in car accident (Breach) and strangers need prayer as all humans are dealing with fear and loss.

The Q Makes The Rules

/in /by

32 PAX took the field and immediately felt the difference—this wasn’t standard Ultimate, it was controlled chaos with purpose. With three scoring zones per team, the game forced constant decision-making: grind for the safe 1-point end zone, thread a tight throw into the 2-point bonus box, or take a high-risk shot at the 3-point corner. Early on, teams played conservative, but as momentum shifted, players started stretching the field, launching deep shots and cutting aggressively to the corners.

Communication became everything—sidelines were loud, calling out zone opportunities and defensive switches as handlers scanned for mismatches. By the midpoint, legs were heavy but intensity stayed high, with several clutch 3-point conversions swinging the score dramatically. What stood out most was the adaptability—guys adjusted on the fly, spacing improved, and trust in throws grew as the game went on. In the end, it wasn’t just about athleticism; it was about awareness, timing, and taking calculated risks under pressure, and every player walked off knowing they’d been part of something fast, competitive, and a step above the usual pickup run.

The game was a close one but the score keeping team prevailed. 

Working on the Standard

/in /by

FNGs:

None

Warm Up:

Standard Warmup, including the Mission Statement, 5 Core Principals, and the 15 Penalty Burpees associated with the failure to know when called upon.

The Workout:

26 PAX this morning for a crisp April morning game of UFO.  We apparently still need to update the website to ensure the start time is updated to 0515 because we had 6 – 8 of the 26 show up after 5:15, I’m pretty sure they still owe ~15 burpees because they missed the warmup, haha.  Great work to all the HIMs that showed up, it is always great to get out and get our weeks started out right.

Mary:

Cleanup of the field

Announcements:

@finkle stepping up to take over the Nest, the mission is to Plant, Grow, and Serve.  For anyone who is part of the Grow, but not yet taken up the Serve, think about what you can do to take the next step.  Without it, the “Plant” will die.

T-Claps (Recognition):

Good Work to those that stuck around to complete the #corechallenge Day 6.

Fox Family, Struggling PAX both Monetarily, Family, Faith, and Health.  Our leaders and soldiers on the frontline
