I would just like to take this opportunity to congratulate
Cardinal Carter, of Aurora, on their first place
finish at this years OFSAA tournament. There was a high level of
skill at this years tournament, and they rose above the 24 teams
emerge victorious. CONGRATULATIONS
I would also like to congratulate the Hamilton area schools that
attended. The Hammer was well represented, with three schools putting
in four teams. Waterdown, St Thomas More
and Delta all put in great efforts. Waterdown topped
the group with a 5th place finish, loosing only to Cardinal Carter
in a very close game. After a tough morning, Delta got it together
and won 2 of their 3 playoff games. St Thomas More also had a great
day, with one team winning most spirited.
The spirit at this tournament was a fantastic representation of
how Ultimate should be. Every team was having fun, disputes were
kept to a minimum and the sun was shinning. I was honored to be
a part of this amazing day.
I look forward to the increased popularity of Ultimate in high
schools, and I encourage all the teachers out there to get involved
with their schools and promote the sport.
Cheers,
Jesse Smith
