  • SPONSORSHIP PLAN on the Road to the World Ultimate & Guts
    From: Rebecca MacPherson Sub-Item 1 Sent: Friday, January 22, 2016 4:27 PM To: Mayor & Council Subject: Sponsorship Proposal Dear Mayor Walter Sendzik, I live in your riding and I would like to bring your attention to a sporting event in which I will be participating this summer. I currently play competitive ultimate and I have been selected to represent Canada at the World Ultimate and Guts Championships in London, UK in 2016. Our team of 27 players will compete in the women’s masters division (30+ years old) against teams from other countries including Japan, Finland, Italy, Germany, Columbia and the USA. The tournament, which will run from June 18 to 25, 2016, showcases the best talent from around the globe, as each country participating in the event sends only one team per division. Ultimate, a fast-growing sport that values spirited fair play at all levels from recreational to elite, was granted full recognition by the International Olympic Committee in 2015. The sport is played in more than 80 countries around the world in elementary and high schools, in college, in recreational leagues, by competitive club teams and in two professional leagues in North America. To represent Canada to the best of our abilities, my team is seeking sponsorship and financial support to help us achieve our goal of winning the tournament. The core of our team (which is based in Montreal) won gold while representing Canada in 2014 at the World Championships and we are excited to have the opportunity to do it again. Your participation in our fundraising campaign will help cover some of the costs inherent in undertaking this adventure, including player fees, tournament and travel costs, field rental for practices, etc.

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.

  • September 2018 Mark Your Calendars!
    Welcome back everyone for another great year of curling! Chair’s Report - September 2018 Welcome Back!!! It was great to see everyone at our Member's Social Night last Thursday, it is great to get caught up with curling friends, and kick off an exciting new season. If you are a new curler or just new to our club, Welcome! We hope that you will enjoy the fun and friendly atmosphere here at the Granite! Besides league play, there are several social-curling events to take part in. There are curling clinics; mini-spiels hosted by the Women's section that includes instruction; and the very popular Hospitality Bonspiel in November hosted by the Friday Mixed Recreational section. If you are a novice curler that would like to improve your curling abilities, please consider joining a team in one of the competitive sections. Playing against experienced curlers is a great way to become more involved in the strategy and enhance your level of skill. If this would appeal to you, give your name to our Club Manager, Freda Braker, and if a team is looking for a player, she can put both parties in touch with each other. The afternoon and evening Open House dates of October 9, 10, & 11 will have practice ice available. We will once again have the addition of a Public Open House on Saturday, October 13. This date will be for potential new members only so bring your non-curling friends out to get on the ice and throwing some rocks! Pre-registration is recommended for this Public Open House.
