EVOLVE is an Organization owned and operated in Colorado, centered around ultimate frisbee training and aimed at assisting young athletes with both the physical and mental skills involved with improving their game. We have learned so much from so many great coaches and peers while playing this sport and we are passionate about passing that knowledge on to the next generation!
TRAINING PROGRAM ELEMEMTS
SPEED & QUICKNESS - Top speed as well as change of direction are both very useful on offense as well as defense. Ladders, various cutting patterns and acceleration drills can all help improve these parts of your game.
THROWING - Feeling comfortable and confident with the disc can assist immensely when it comes to helping your team out on offense. Working on body mechanics and release angles can help as well as knowing what to look for as a thrower.
CUTTING - When being positioned downfield your timing and field IQ are key elements in terms of getting open as well as working well together with your teammates. Structured drills can help with visualization and execution in this area.
DEFENSE - Being able to effectively cover an opposing player and work collaboratively with your teammates when the other team has the disc is crucial in the sport of ultimate. There's many ways to go about this and lots of situational drills to help with positioning as well as problem solving that comes with playing good defense.
CONDITIONING - As athletes, a big part of playing sports is being able to prepare your body and mind for the physical exertion that ultimate demands. This can be done in a variety of ways and present opportunities to really push yourself.
SPIRIT OF THE GAME - A core principle emphasizing sportsmanship in ultimate. Bringing mutual respect, integrity and a joy for the game is something we want to emphasize in all aspects of our training sessions and are happy to have it be a specific focus as well.
