ADDITIONAL OPTIONS
Purchase Discs
If booking any of the above session, we’ll be happy to also sell extra discs to schools or teachers at $10/disc (below our cost).
School Tournaments
For a long time, we have run the Catch the Spirit High School tournament in February/March.
With Indoor tournaments, finding venues is often the biggest challenge, and schools with access to turf fields, or with large gymnasiums, can help make more tournaments happen.
We’re open to helping run more high school tournaments - that can involve us leading the way with marketing, registrations, scheduling, and managing the event, or we’re happy to just step in where needed, whether with registrations, or simply day-of managing If we can help - let us know. As a non-profit, we’re looking to just cover our costs, and we can often help with some prizing as well.
