Signed by the final examining committee: Dr. Marco Bertola Chair Dr. Don Morrow External Examiner Dr. Gavin Foster External to Program Dr. Elena Razlogova Examiner Dr. Alison Rowley Examiner Dr. Steven High Thesis Supervisor Approved by Dr. Norman Ingram Chair, History Department Dr. Nora Jaffary Graduate Program Director Dr. Brian Lewis Dean of Arts & Science ii ABSTRACT ‘The Dynamics of the Disc:’ Ultimate (Frisbee), Community, & Memory, 1968-2011 Lindsay Pattison, Ph.D. Concordia University, 2011 „The Dynamics of the Disc‟ is an oral history project that makes an important contribution to an under-researched area of Canadian sport history. Using a variety of analytical approaches this study traces the growth and development of the sport of Ultimate in Canada. And by examining the thematic links between and across stories told by Ultimate players, it provides a nuanced understanding of what Ultimate means to the people who play. Ultimate has rapidly evolved into a worldwide competitive amateur sport, and enjoyed exponential growth as a popular recreational game that is currently played in organized leagues in most major urban centres across North America by men, women, and youth.

  • Freestyle Frisbee Is a Sport and Performing Art Characterized by Creative, Acrobatic, and Athletic Maneuvers with a Flying Disc
    Flying disc freestyle which is also known as freestyle Frisbee is a sport and performing art characterized by creative, acrobatic, and athletic maneuvers with a flying disc. Freestyle is performed individually or more commonly in groups, both competitively and recreationally. There is a Freestyle Players Association (FPA) which is the governing body of freestyle, “dedicated to the growth of freestyle disc play as a lifetime recreation and competitive sport.” The organization is involved in international tournaments and rankings as well as education grants and promotional activities. Freestyle Frisbee began in 1960s. Freestyle in the beginning before the invention of the "nail delay" catching possibilities would depend on the throw you were given, it was always spontaneous and unpredictable. Play of this type of freestyle was performed with two players standing 30-40 yards apart, the throws were fast and varied and the catches were right off the throw, except for the occasional kick or slap-up and rarely a pause between the catch and the throw back. At advanced levels, the throws and catches would become a flow that was created once you mastered the basics. It was fast and fluid and visibly would resemble martial arts and dance. Eventually, freestyle developed into its own discipline, with the first Frisbee freestyle competition being introduced by Ken Westerfield and Jim Kenner at the 1974 Canadian Open Frisbee Championships, Toronto, Canada. In 1975, there was the first freestyle event held in the US. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Wham-O (toy company in California) sponsored major tournament circuits culminating in the Rose Bowl, an overall event with a prominent freestyle component.
