Byron Bay - Redux

So while we were visiting the NSW Sport and Rec Centre at Lennox Heads last weekend for Badman's Birthday Bash, Sean Flanagan and Tony Ross and others revealed that the venue had hosted many a frisbee event back in the day (the day being the '90s).

The flashback got Sean to go digging through his big box of photos, and we'll be featuring a few of the results here at Brisbane Ultimate Blog: Your Choice for Brisbane Ultimate History!

Sean thinks these date from around 1991 or 92. For those who were there last week, the dunes look the same, the fields a bit rougher, and there's a lot less in the way of buildings!

Of the next row of three, Sean says: "This one has me, Simon Wood, Joel Duckham, Sam Howard, Brendan Love and Stew Marcoom looking into a frisbee for some reason. The second photo shows the fields before the basket ball hall. And the third shows a young Jenny Keys - the guy in red in the same photo lives in lismore and organised most of these events for about 9 years (Greg Lynn)."

And here's one of the man (Flan) himself, getting into some freestyling.

You really want to click to make this one bigger.

We've got a few more to post next week.

If you've got some old photos - why not email them and we'll post them for posterity and share the wisdom with the young-folk.
