Best experience ever for my daughter. She has developed as an athelete because of it. No other sport has kept her attention and commitment as long as frisbee. She plays it constantly.

Ultimate frisbee is a huge part of my life. I love the camaraderie aspect and Many of the people I have played with, which includes rookies all the way up to professionals, always play a fair game no matter what. I want to see this sport grow and I want to see it's integrity grow to as may people as possible.

I just played my first "game" of frisbee this past weekend and even though I wasn't very good I had so much fun and I'm planning to practice more this year to prep for a real game (shoutout to leo) I definitely think it should be added as a varsity club sport.

Frisbee is such a welcoming sport to kids of all levels of athletic ability. Please find a place in our school system for this sport.

If there has already been 2 pro leagues, why hasn't it become a sport?

Leo Pierson has been a life friend, mentor, and brother in my life so when he introduced me to ultimate I was hooked. Ultimate became close to my heart for it has helped me through tough and stressful times. It has been my roots and base and I am proud to say Leo was the spark that ignited the bonfire I have within for Ultimate

Leo Pierson is a real inspiration to all. He is my role model and coach. He deserves more for what he does for this game. Everywhere he goes he is willing to take the time to toss with his students. You can make a difference just like Leo. Proving young adults the game that teaches more than what it speculates to be. I once thought that this game wasn't a sport but he proved me wrong. He gave me a different viewpoint on Ultimate which I will never forget.

The lessons of integrity and prioritizing the spirit of the game is what makes the community of Ultimate special. The thrill of playing a sport where at any given moment any player, as a cutter or handler, can make a big impact play keeps me hooked on Ultimate.

No other sports ever really interested me in high school. If this was available as a sport, I wouldn't have hesitated to join.

Let us play even more! An amazing culture of self-reliance. Not only great fun and challenge for experienced athletes, what I love about this sport is the myriad opportunities for kids in Fairfax Co. who might otherwise not even consider playing a team sport.

My son lives ultimate. Would be great if FCPS recognized that not only is it good for the body, but also good for the kind. Ultimate players are self-officiating and show a degree of sportsmanship that is unmatched in other sports. It promotes responsibility and teamwork. Sounds like a good thing to me!
