"Goaltimate rules..... period!"
Steve Mooney
Boston... Ultimate King
"As a lad my passions were whiffleball and driveway half court
b-ball. Having 5 kids from 3 to 8 years old, its obvious to me that
Goaltimate will become the suburban sport of choice for my family, my
neighborhood and their generation."
Jim Herrick,
Member of the 1982 and 1983 National/World
Ultimate Champions Boston Rude Boys
"I have played a number of individual and team sports during
my life. I can say without any hesitation that Goaltimate is the most
exhilarating sport of them all! You must have terrific foot speed and be
able to sustain it with incredible endurance. You need tremendous hand-eye
coordination and be able to strategize and execute on the move. Goaltimate
is for the highly fit athlete that enjoys a sport that provides variety
and uniqueness with every goal."
Steve Ferguson
Captain, San Diego, California
Participant in seven UPA National Tournaments,
and two WFDF World Tournaments
"Up until now Goaltimate has been the hidden treasure of San
Diego disc enthusiasts. I was fortunate enough to get to play once while
visiting a friend, and I can tell you that once the rest of the country
gets turned on to Goaltimate, it'll spread like wildfire. It's fast,
furious, and the action is non-stop! See you in June..."
Kenny Dobyns
Captain, New York, New York Ultimate team
Participant in 15 UPA National tournaments,
seven Championship titles;
seven WFDF/WUCC World tournaments,
five Championship titles.
"The great thing about this sport is that it's just starting
out. We're all on an even playing field in terms of experience. Nobody has
the advantage over anyone else. Start playing it soon so that YOU can be
the one walking away with all the cash in June!"

World Tournaments, six Championships; two UPA College Championship
Tournaments.
"I have to hand it to him, Rick Conner has gotten my
attention! He said, 'Hey Cribber, come play in my Goaltimate tourney.' So
I said 'Why?' He said, 'The finals will be on ESPN and I am putting on a
first class event.' So I am like 'Yeah, so?' Then he says 'Oh, did I
mention the 30,000 other reasons?'............See ya in San Diego!"
Dennis "Cribber" Warsen

Participant in 10 UPA National championships, six Championship titles;
seven WFDF World tournaments..
"I enjoy Goaltimate because many of the disc skills and
certainly the endurance required translate directly from Ultimate. The
addition of a five second stall count and the dynamics of goal scoring
opportunities adds another whole dimension to the decision making process.
What a f*@!ing hoot."
Matthew Lefevre
Co-captain of Santa Barbara Condors,
participant in four UPA Collegiate Nationals,
two UPA club Nationals,
two time Collegiate National Champion,
1998 Open National Runner-Up.
"Goaltimate looks like a fast-paced, exciting game that should
appeal to any serious Ultimate player."
Bob Byrne
Executive Director, UPA
"What started as a game we played when we didn't have enough
guys for Ultimate has become the Game of Choice.
The sport combines the two games I love the most - Ultimate Frisbee and
Basketball. See you on the field."
Jim "Daddy" Ingebritsen
San Diego, California
Member of 1985 National/World Champions Flying Circus,
Participant in eight UPA National Tournaments
"One of my favorite things about playing Ultimate has always
been the spontaneous generation of new games that can be played within the
parameters which a disc gives rise to. While I have played Goaltimate
before, I've never played it with the prospect of winning many thousands
of dollars-that is an exciting concept. I believe this tournament will be
a great contest, as it will test many ultimate players ability to adapt
their skills with a disc to a whole new set of constraints, and to compete
against players which have already honed their disc skills, within this
Goaltimate context. It should be really fun and interesting…"
Scott Lipscomb
Member of 1995 World Champions Double Happiness, Participant in
six UPA National Tournaments
and three WFDF World Tournaments
"Goaltimate is a very challenging and fast-paced sport. It
takes a while to learn how to get the disc at the correct angle so you can
kick it through the uprights. However, once you master this subtle skill
you will experience such a high that you too will be HOOKED ON
GOALTIMATE!"
Brian "Biscuit" Morris
Member of 1995 World Champions Double Happiness, Participant in eight
UPA National Tournaments and three WFDF World Tournaments
"Quite simply, Goaltimate is the king of disc sports. Anyone
who doubts this hasn't played it!"

College Nationals, two WFDF World Championships, original Wellesley
