ODSA 2009 AGM

Today I headed to the ODSAAGM held in Toronto for what was expected to be a very interesting AGM. Parts of this post are written while I was at the AGM so there will be a changes in tense as you read on. A bit of background (I can chat about this because it’s public) on why it’s interesting is that there is general discontent amongst Ultimate clubs in Ontario with ODSA’s governing body (board and Executive Director).

Big Picture

Yesterday evening was my first foray into National level organization by participating in my first Ultimate Canadaboard meeting. A friend in Hamilton (Linda) suggested that I try for an Ontario rep spot and at the conference a few weeks ago I was acclaimed (deeee-fault!). I have, for quite some time, shied away from being a part of the system in Canadian Ultimate much preferring to think that I could create change more easily from the outside.

Shark talk

In an interest to learn more about people and our sport I will from time to time stop heckling and instead have a conversation with a fellow player. In keeping with the theme of this weekend (CUUC) I had a quick chat with Scott Hislop of the UWO Sharks and TFP (as he’s probably better known for). I first met Scott two years ago in the WODS indoor Winter league where we were on occasion decimated by the UWO team.
