Hi folks,
I really wanted to send out a massive thank you to everyone who donated a disc for me to take to Uganda - especially the Mcnaughton dynasty who once again demonstrated their limitless generosity!
I wish I had videoed the responses of some of the recipients - they were pretty happy!
I was actually very lucky and managed to make friends with a Peace Corps teacher who was already teaching Ultimate to her students. She was doing this with a couple of fairly sad looking discs, so to give each student a relatively shiny disc of their own made a huge difference to everyone's enthusiasm!
I was able to join in on a few of the games - these involved dodging the anthill mid field, avoiding the goat in the endzone, steering clear of the machete weilding sideline grass cutters and having such a cracking good time!
Just to let you know where the discs ended up:
1. A teachers college- they're aiming to get to the annual tournament in Kampala this year
2. A local school for the deaf
Thanks again!!Sass

Sars in Uganda
So a while back, the delightful Sara Carghill ventured off to Uganda, carrying with her a bunch of discs that folks in Brisbane donated. Here's what's happened since then.
