Disciplines in their own right…, often practised for a long time, these sports, which we hardly speak about, until they emerge shyly to the surface.

Like all sports, there are necessary rules, values and endurance.

Ultimate Frisbee

Everyone knows about the plastic disc which we like to play with our children. But did you know that it is also played in a team, very physical ??

During the “ultimate Frisbee” matches, two teams of 7 persons must advance on the sports field exchanging the disc and attempting to reach the end of the zone. One doesn’t only “play” the “ultimate Frisbee..one runs, jumps and turn : a real spectacle !

This sport has two teams of 6 players equipped with snorkels, masks and flippers. Everyone with a snorkel, must, with the help of a stick, put a puck in one of the two underwater goal posts located at the end of the swimming pool.
