Ahmedabad Ultimate

     If one were to choose one aspect of India that could be vastly improved on it would be the opportunity for young Indians to have access to an active outlet for them to come together, experience teamwork, learn how to respect one another, practice patience and discipline; all of which can be found in sports. Sport is integral to the development of any major city. This is what was done  in Ahmedabad through ultimate. It satisfied the kids passion and drive to reach new heights while allowing them to prepare for life’s challenges in a structured manner. The unique feature of Ultimate is the ‘Spirit of the Game’ which means that the employment of an umpire/referee is not necessary; this remarkable aspect means that the two teams discuss any ambiguous play right there on the pitch, even at international level, by freezing the game and through this they strive to respect each other.

 

How?

 

AU helped develop players, coaches and teams, on and off the field, in a variety of ways:

We trained coaches who were the youths of Ahmedabad from various backgrounds. Encouraged them to to have an engaging, informative and responsible approach to teaching.

They must be self-sufficient, confident, passionate about Ultimate and dedicated to teaching others like themselves. 

The coaches kept a written journal of their experiences with the intention of recording their evolvement over the 1 year time span.

They reached a good level themselves to reach a level where they became coaches of other kids in the community. Thats how AU grew bigger with 12 youth teams, playing in many youth tournaments. This included 2 girl teams. AU established a national level team called "Dream Catchers". AU gave the power to the youth of Ahmedabad to UNLEASH THEIR POTENTIAL

 

Now?

 

Today AU wants to revive its program of manufacturing and distributing low cost discs to the youth of India. AU has in past manufactured and distributed over 3000 discs. Today we look to revive the same program under our Buy 1 Give 1 model.
