Ottawa's competitive women's team "Stella" is organizing a 
women's ultimate skills clinic on Saturday, May 19th. Cost is 
free for OCUA members (ie: playing in OCUA's summer league).

Beginners (0-2 year experience) will start at 11:00 am - 1:00 
pm and intermediates (2+ years experience) will start at 2:00 
pm - 4:00 pm. You can attend either or both if you would 
like. Beginners level will focus on the fundamentals of the 
game and throwing/cutting techniques. The intermediate level 
will get into more details about strategic offence/defence, 
break-force throws and strategies on zone.

The location is Lynda Lane.  Check with the OCUA hotline: 860-
OCUA (860-6282) and web-page for any changes to the location 
or times of the clinic.

Bring cleats, a frisbee, and a dark and light shirt (for pick-
up scrimmage after each clinic).

Feel free to pass along the information. Everyone is 
welcome!!!!!  Even if you've come to clinics in the past, 
it's always helpful to touch up on skills and see new 
techniques we're showing this year.  If you have any 
questions contact me at nalan_yuksel@hotmail.com.
