Discraft Has, In Fact, Remembered
Us! |
05/14/2002 |
| |
After seemingly
losing our order, Discraft has contacted us. We need to
do a slight alteration on the design—replace the
buddha with Caesar holding a pizza—and then resubmit
it. Once we do, we'll have the discs s-s-s-soon. |

Practices Have Resumed |
May 2002 |
| |
Alright! With the weather finally breaking—and
the squalls arriving two or three times daily—it
is safe to announce twice per week practices as officially
reinstated.
Practice times are Tuesdays @ 5:30 and Sundays @ 12:00,
Hollidaysburg YMCA. Check your email frequently in case
of inclement weather.
Caveat, Keeners! Instead
of sending daily "let's play in five minutes"
emails, try to make the scheduled practices. As Martha
would say, "It's just good" if we get together
in numbers.

Consult Nick to refresh your memory on how many you

Shirts Have Been Ordered |
01/23/2002 |
| |
After a loooooong design process, we have finally submitted
the artwork and shirt order to the company that will
produce them. Turnaround time is a week to ten days,
so we won't have them for practice Saturday, but rest
assured they are almost ready.
Check out the front
and back
designs here.

Shirt & Disc Design
Almost Complete! |
11/13/2001 |
| |
Alright, DDoggers,
we're almost ready for proper shirts and discs. We've
been designing for a few weeks, and I think we finally
stumbled on something good. We'll post the .gifs on the
Yahoogroup Page soon, so get a YahooID, link it to your
email address, and then check the Yahoogroups Photos page
for the images. Once we've decided, we'll post them on
this site for the world to enjoy.
Check you email for forthcoming questions regarding number
of shirts, etc. |

Hucktober Tournament Recap |
10/28/2001 |
| |
First, Downward
Dog would like to thank all the teams that made the trip
to Hollidaysburg for our first-ever tournament. With only
a week's preparation, I think we all came together for
a really good afternoon of Ultimate. Despite freezing
conditions.
Downward Dog held its own on the home pitch, luckily having
numbers to allow for timely substitutions throughout the
day. The first game was decided by timecap, with Downward
Dog edging Juniata's Irish Elks
10-7. With the score a close 6-5 at the half, DDOG felt
lucky to grind out the second half against a strong Juniata
club.
Downward Dog's second match was against St. Francis University's
Deep Friars. Many of the
Deep Friars practice regularly with Downward Dog, so there
was a high level of awareness about the Friars' style
of play. The Friars are only in their first yeat at SFU,
and that fact coupled with key Friar no-shows (due to
"dehydration"), helped Downward Dog post an
11-0 win.
The final match put Downward Dog against the 2-0 Flood
from UPJ. Downward Dog played a tough game, and with the
Flood's limited subs (and then the loss of their subs
entirely!), DDOG was able to record an 11-2 win.
Again, thanks to all the teams that made the trip and
to all the DDOGGERS that helped make this tournament happen.
Imagine what we can do with TWO weeks notice.... |

DDOG to Host Hucktober Tournament |
10/23/2001 |
| |
Downward Dog
will be joined by the Deep Friars (St. Francis University),
Irish Elks (Juniata College), and the Flood (UPJ), on
Sunday for a four-team tournament.
We're hoping to slip this one in under the weather; already
the snow is flying, but we hope that the forecast for
Sunday will come through—high 40's and no precipitation.
A thank you to all of the teams that plan on participating.
Check with your captains for times and locations. |

Irish Elks Welcome the Dog |
10/21/2001 |
| |
Members of the Downward Dog club travelled to Juniata
College to practice with the Irish Elks this past Sunday.
The Elks were recovering from a tournament at Shippensburg
where they went 1-4, but they were gracious enough to
invite us to practice despite brush burns and sore limbs.
There was some good play and we plan on setting something
up soon when Downward Dog can post a full side for competition.
Thanks much to the Irish Elks for a great time.

DDOG Makes Contact |
10/18/2001 |
| |
Nick and Josh
have been in contact with both UPJ and Juniata's college
club teams and scrimmages are being planned.
Email the group so we know what weekends are available.
Also, we're planning on making the trip to a Juniata practive
on Sunday, October 21. Plan on meeting for pickup at noon,
and then we'll continue on to Juniata afterward. |

Yahoogroup Expanded |
10/12/2001 |
| |
I discovered
some added features of the Downward Dog yahoogroup page,
including a calendar of events. I added the current pickup
schedule.
Add any additional events you would like, especially Deep
Friar games, etc.
In order to see the homepage, you must create a YahooID
(free), and then link your YahooID to your email address.
Cheers. |

Website Development Begins
|
10/08/2001 |
| |
DDOG has secured
its own domain name and is currently borrowing server
space from friends at vaporbros.com.
The site is obviously under development, but with the
weather turning and pickup liable to be cancelled or changed
at a moment's notice, we went ahead and put up this "work
in progress" so we can hopefully communicate a little
easier.
Any ddoggers with ideas and suggestions for the site are
encouraged to tell Nick or Josh, or use the email link
on the Contact page.
Also, use the email link to submit your own email address
so you can be added to the group list.
See you on the pitch. |
