We lost every game but one, which ended in a tie. “Camon’ yer lit’l fatties, run!” And we ran, we ran our lit’l hearts out.
The big salad leadership team mac#
Our Scottish coach Mac would yell at us in a half slur. Just another 12 year old pudge-ball growing out of his uniform. Instead, I spent my pre-teenage years playing club soccer. He focused on teaching fundamentals and how those fundamentals were essential to playing good ultimate. In practice he demanded effort and work, and we all gave 100%. He played basketball in college, his skills and “baller” mindset carried over to ultimate. Maybe we didn’t respect that part of him, but at least it got our attention. He also yelled at us when we did something stupid. I think it was due to the fact that he had been to Worlds like, 43 times people respect achievement. Metaphorically speaking.Īnyway, Mustache had a god-like persona to most of us. He was an entire meal and I gobbled him up.

If Mustache was a leadership salad, he would have been a hearty one, full of all the veggies you can think of, plus a little bit of cheese and some olives, even some meat. And a good salad is not just a bowl of lettuce–that wouldn’t be proper! At the very least it’s gotta have some carrots for color, some onion for a little kick, and some tomatoes for their juicy, meaty, fleshy goodness. You see, a good leader is like a good salad. It wasn’t until I moved away that I realized how lucky I was. I played with him in a bunch of mid-level tournaments in Canada and the US over a three year period.
I learned almost everything I know about ultimate from him. I played for an open team for two seasons and Mustache was our team’s coach. The following summer was my first experience with club ultimate. I didn’t know what a double helix pull looked like, or what it was good for, let alone that it was a skill few possess. At the time, I was about four weeks into my ultimate career. I didn’t really know what to think of his stache, like a charred italian sausage on his upper lip, thick as a bicycle tire. He was practicing his pulls into the stratosphere. I never realized how much that mustache nourished me until it was gone. More specifically a thick black mustache that had a ton of salad in it. The teams will have to figure out that they’re all working on the same puzzle, and come together to solve it.Today we are going to talk about a mustache and salad. the first team to complete their puzzle wins, and see how that changes the game.Īlternately, you can give them all pieces of the same puzzle. You can add another twist by making it competitive, i.e.
The teams will have to work together to figure out what happened with their puzzles, and how best to get the pieces distributed correctly. Give your team very simple instructions, such as, “You have 20 minutes to complete your puzzles” and offer no further guidance.So, if you’re using four 100-piece puzzles, each box will end up containing 25 pieces from each puzzle. Remove all the puzzles from their boxes, then redistribute an equal number of pieces from each puzzle into each box.It’s better if the puzzles require the same skill level, but look very different. Each group is going to do a jigsaw puzzle.Teams try to put together mixed up jigsaw puzzles.
