The Lakeside HS Ultimate Frisbee team will be hosting free clinics to teach the sport on Wednesdays from 6-8 pm this summer beginning June 5 at the Lakeside HS field. Boys and girls from 3rd through 12th grade are welcome! 

Lakeside coaches and players from the 2024 state champions team will lead the clinics. This is a great way for young players to learn how to play a fun and fast-growing sport. 

Parent/guardian(s), please complete the brief waiver form at the link on the team website at https://tinyurl.com/lakeside-ultimate. If you have questions, contact LakesideUltimateATL@gmail.com. 

Henderson MS has an Ultimate team, too, so this is a great way for rising 6th graders to practice their skills!
