Spanish Beach Ultimate is booming! Only surpassed by the US they host the most Beach Ultimate tournaments in the world! Last year there were 7 Beach Ultimate tournaments in Spain and that is growing already. The latest edition is a world premier: The first women-only Beach Ultimate tournament!

Organized by Corocotta from Santander (North of Spain) this event will take place 28-29 March. (If you want to play: registration closes 24 January). Great initiative. Perhaps that will help take European female Ultimate player off the endangered species list... :-)

Spanish women at the World Championships in Portugal

The last few months there has been a fair bit of Beach Ultimate in Spain and Portugal. The Porro Open tournament in Barcelona, several tournaments in Punta de Umbria (South of Spain) and at Praia do Meco (Portugal). There wasn't a lot of sunshine, some rain and wind, but that made it special. With waves crashing, fresh sea air in your nose and the disc in your hand you realize that life is great!... until you have to huck into the wind... :-)
