PlayRight Ultimate Coaching

PlayRight offers a fundamentals-based approach to teaching and coaching Ultimate. We're not about the latest gimmick offense or junk defense; we believe players who have a solid understanding of the "hows" and "whys" of all aspects of the game are better players. Our program gives you skills that can carry you through whatever level of competition you pursue, because our staff draws on years of experience at the college, club, national and international level. We push for excellence from our players while preserving the sheer fun of the game and respect for one's peers that is at the heart of the "Spirit of the Game."
