After a late night of ‘networking’ with fellow MBAs, Ivey’s finest congregated for what was an inaugural ultimate frisbee game for some of our players. Over morning coffees we discussed rules and strategy while watching the high-level games already underway. Our first three games gave us an opportunity to learn and try some of the concepts we had talked about. The team’s academic prowess proved useful on the pitch as we quickly unified and went undefeated all morning.
After showing some support for our volleyball team we came back to the indoor field at St. Michaels for playoffs. While McMaster and Laval proved to be extremely competitive teams, Ivey prevailed and went onto the finals against Dalhousie. The final match was a nail-biter, as both teams hucked full-field passes and went point for point for the majority of the game.
With the Ivey contingent cheering us on from the sidelines, we were able to pull out a 9-7 victory to win the MBA Games Ultimate Frisbee Championship.
Thanks to a great team who made this possible!
