General Description
|
ESSC
Ultimate is an exciting, fast moving game which combines the
best aspects of football, soccer and basketball. It is
a non-contact competitive team sport that is distinguished by
the spirit of the game (the principles of fair play,
sportsmanship, and the joy of play). It is easy to learn,
fun to play and a great way to get fit! After your game, enjoy ESSC specials
at one of our many Sponsor Bars around Edmonton.
Player Testimonial: "I have been a member of the SSC for 3 years now, during this time I have really enjoyed everything the Club has to offer. The league is well run and organized. I look forward to playing each week, meeting a variety of new friends and I also get a good workout! It's the BEST!!!" Ian, Monday Ultimate |
