What are Fryz?
We are a group of high schoolers who are passionate about ultimate Frisbee. The weather elements haven’t stopped us from practicing. We’ve played together since the fall of 2008, through the winter in cold, rain, wind, hail, and snow and in extreme heat of 100 degrees.
We are a very diverse team including family structure, race, ethnicity, gender, religion, socioeconomic and education. Foremost our players are best friends, hanging out over the weekends and staying in constant contact with each other.

About Ultimate
Ultimate Frisbee players know it's a fringe sport with its own following. But it did have the biggest participation increase, almost 21 percent, among team sports in 2008, according to the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association. More than 700 colleges have teams, and the finals of the USA Ultimate National Championships held at the Sarasota Polo Club in Florida were streamed live to 40 countries, drew 1,500 competitors on 60 teams from around the country that competed in four categories -- open, women, masters and mixed. (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?id=5755676).
Approximately 1600 youth players participated in this past years local Spring Ultimate Youth League and approximately 1100 played at a tournament called Spring Reign, the largest youth ultimate Frisbee tournament in the world.
Ultimate is a great family game, easy to learn, with the bonus of lots of exercise. Best of all, it's a non-contact sport, self-refereed and the principle of fair play “spirit of the game” and sportsmanship is paramount. Our belief is that the spirit of the game is more important than the final score. The kids truly have fun playing Ultimate, and playing together as a team/family is what we all look forward to each week.

More About Fryz
Our team fundraises, by selling gear, to help our own teammates who are on scholarship and need help paying for tournament entry fees, coaching, and uniforms. Our team is well respected in the community; two of our players have won the King 5 Athlete of the year award, and we have healthy family support. We’d like to be role models to the next generation of Ultimate Frisbee.
Why Fryz?
Young fish are commonly referred to as Fry. We are still very young but someday would like to become the Sockeye of the future. (The Seattle Sockeyes are one of the best Open Frisbee teams in the world.)
