Welcome
There are many roads that lead a man to a career in Ultimate. There are the players that pick up the game at a young age, immersing themselves in the fundamentals of the forehand instead of practicing their slapshot. Many are introduced to the sport in university, looking to fill the void left by the absence of high school sports. Then there are the latecomers, men who may have already explored athletic pursuits in other areas - basketball, football, soccer - but are still seeking some sort of fulfillment, interested in chasing down one more dream. No matter what lies in the past of an Ultimate player, it is their commitment to the future that dictates their success. The seasons are long and grueling, the training is arduous, and the cost in money and man-hours is intimidating. But men who can see the big picture and fill in the necessary details are the ones who are successful. A great team is comprised of such individuals, those who seek the completion of their being in the pursuit of a larger goal. It is surely an empty life if one does not define goals and then seek to achieve them; for the men of Phoenix, those goals are more clearly defined than in any previous season. A berth at the World Club Championships in Prague looms on the schedule. There is unfinished business with our foes south of the border to tend to in the fall.

Phoenix is Producing a Tourbook
After a second place finish at the 2009 Canadian Ultimate Championships in Winnipeg, Phoenix earned the right to represent Canada at this summer's upcoming World Championships in Prague, Czech Replublic. In order to offset some of the significant travel and accomodation expenses associated with the trip, Phoenix is producing a tourbook to be distributed free of charge to spectators, fans, local league members, and contributors, at home and abroad.
