This page is here as a directory for video clips pertaining to specific ideas/strategies/plays in Ultimate. This is mainly set up for my own future references in articles or in personal coaching/explanation, but I thought it would do well being publicly available for anyone else to use.
I make database entries while watching videos on YouTube or Vimeo, and if I see something worth nothing, I’ll grab a time-stamped link, and add it to the list.
My advice for watching these clips: Read the hyperlink text, watch the video to see who is involved, then rewind and watch again in detail, this time focusing on the key player.
I also take the time to make playlists of the videos I watch on Youtube. It’s in an early stage, but it will come in handy when trying to find games with certain players/teams.
Offense
General
– Robbie Cahill crashes the disc and scores.
Despite the disc being thrown deep to someone else, Cahill goes after it regardless, and is able to make the catch. A great team play that everyone should look to do whenever possible.
Throwing
Throwing cutters open
– Mickle cuts away for swing twice in a row.
– Rassmussen to Schlagg for yards.
Cutting
General
– Jimmy Mickle clears out, and sees that his defender is giving up the deep space.
One concept I struggled to get teammates to see was taking what the defense gives up. This is a great example.
Setting-up
– Tim Morrissey one-one-one with Trent Dillon
Mario gives great insight into cutting strategy shortly after this play unfolds.
Defense
Help-Defense
– Jackson Kloor helps on a deep cut.
Kloor, as the last man back in the defense, is reading the entire field, not just his assignment.
– Karlinsky tries against the best cutter int the world.
Danny had a great poach/help D minutes before this attempt. While not successful, it is a great effort. This is what good teammates on D should look for.
Switching
– Central Florida switches twice against the give-and-get. One; Two
When a handler throws-and-goes, there are times when the receiver can give off a little bump pass back to the handler, who has his eyes down-field and could very well be in a power throwing position. This switch helps deny that advantage.
