Masters World Championship – 3rd Place 🥉
What a week in England.
Huge thanks to everyone on Wolly Mammoth for giving me the opportunity to play ultimate frisbee again after 10 years. I honestly never thought I’d play again, let alone at a World Championship.
This week you guys made something very clear. Yes I love ultimate frisbee, I love throwing hammer goals and getting layout D’s, but what I missed most was being part of a team. Having a group of guys all buying into one goal and pushing each other to achieve it. Being part of this team showed me what I’ve been missing and I look forward to playing again with you all.
As for what’s next…
Overall, I’m happy with how my body held up. I avoided any major injuries, and during our quarterfinal I finally started to feel a little like my old self again. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to play in the Semifinals against Clapham (body just had enough) and that sucked, but I’ll use that for fuel moving forward.
I’m going all in on training for ultimate over the next 4–5 months to see what I’m capable of. If you’ve followed me for a while, you know I’m going to give it everything I’ve got. If I can squeeze a few more great years out of this sport, that’ll be a dream come true.
Thanks to everyone who supported us throughout the tournament, and to everyone I met at the tournament. The positive messages, conversations, and support meant more than you know.
