 The Ultimate Flying Disc games of Woodstock and New Paltz are casual pickup games. All women and men, aged 10 and up, are welcome. In the summer months during Daily Savings Time, we play on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays in Woodstock, and Wednesdays and Fridays in New Paltz. There are also games that form at other area locations, and often an indoor game during the winter months. Check below for all the Ulster and Dutchess County games that we know about.

Also... Don't be afraid of winter. The Woodstock game has had many seasons that continued into December, and there's almost always that indoor game.

If you are interested in playing Ultimate with us, even in the off-season, please contact us using one of the methods below.

About the Game, and How to Play

Ultimate is a non-contact team sport, originated in 1968, that combines some elements of basketball, soccer, and football. The game is fast paced, and quite a cardiovascular and full body workout, but it is also very easy to learn. There are two teams of from 3 to seven players each. Play starts as one team throws the disc to the other. The other team catches the disc, and begins to move across the field toward their goal, tossing the disc between their team members. A player cannot run with the disc, and attempts to throw it to a teammate while the other team tries to block the throw. If the disc is caught by the other team, or falls to the ground, the other team gains possession and tries to work back towards their goal line. A point is scored when the disc is thrown over a team's goal line and caught by a team member. The disc used is either a Discraft or Frisbee device, with the Discraft being the preferred choice over the traditional Wham-O brand Frisbee.

Current Weather
The regular Woodstock game is played on Sunday afternoons at 3:00pm (sometimes up to 60 minutes later), and some Tuesdays and Thursdays at 3:00pm .

The games are usually at the Comeau Property fields. These are beautiful and level fields, very well taken care of by the town of Woodstock and the soccer folks (particularly the Woodstock Soccer Club).

Click here for a Yahoo map of the Woodstock Comeau Property. From the center of Woodstock, the Village Green, go West towards Bearsville on Tinker St (Rt 212) until you see the old firehouse on the right. Opposite the firehouse on the left is Comeau Drive. Go up this road, past the first municipal parking lot on the right, and up to the second parking lot at the top, on the right. Park in this lot, and follow the soccer ball signs to the fields.

Alternate location at the Andy Lee Rec Field: (On rare occasions the game moves because the Comeau Property fields are wet, or we are bumped because of other activities)

Click here for a Google map of the Woodstock Rec Field. From the center of Woodstock, take Rock City Road (the road that intersects Rt 212 at the Village Green). Pass cemetery on right and park in the parking lot immediately after the cemetery. We play in the Rec Field (Andy Lee Field), behind the Community Center and pool.

If we are not on the lacrosse field, look for us on the Blue Field... Directions to the Blue Field from the main New Paltz intersection of Rt. 299 (Main St.) and Rt. 208, where the Mobil station is: Turn onto Rt. 208 South.

The new entrance to the school is just past the VFW hall on the left. Turn left into the school. On your immediate left will be a blue-painted track with a field in the middle of it. That's the field. Park behind the field on your left. Click here for a Google map of the blue track field.
