EXPO NORTH
SATURDAY, 1:30-2:00PM, 3:30-4:00PM
Ultimate Frisbee is currently played by over
800,000 people in the United States. There are
over 550 High School teams, 1,200 College
teams, and several thousand at the adult level.
St. Johnsbury Academy has supported a Varsity
Ultimate program for the past 3 years. Comprised
of 50 players and 3 coaches, the three STJA
teams play an annual spring season of 40 games
across New England. Every May the school hosts
30+ teams at their annual spring invitational, which
draws teams from 8 states and several Canadian
provinces. STJA Varsity Boys Coach, Josh
Seamon, will be leading a demonstration of various
aspects of the dynamic aspect of Ultimate. Along
with several members of his Varsity boys team, he
will cover how the game is played, what makes it
different from other sports, and where it’s heading.
