...Frisbee Golf Purpose: I intend to inform Specific Purpose: To inform my audience about the rules of Frisbee golf, the types of disc, and how to throw the disc. Introduction: Every weekend my friends and I all go play Frisbee golf, weather permitting of course, mainly because we don’t have money to do anything else but we all enjoy being outside and doing something other than watching TV.

The main difference being that you can start playing Frisbee golf without having to break the bank considering once you have the equipment to play, the Frisbee golf courses are free to play on.

...Ultimate Frisbee Ultimate Frisbee History Ultimate frisbee is kind of like frisbee and football mixed. The object of the game is to score points by passing the disc to a player in the opposing end zone. The ultimate frisbee begins with Joel Silver. He proposed a school Frisbee team in the fall of 1968. The following spring, a group of students got together to play what Silver claimed to be the "ultimate game experience," adapting the sport from a form of Frisbee Football. In 1979 and 1980 the Ultimate Players Association was formed. The UPA organized regional tournaments and has crowned a national champion every year since 1979. Ultimate frisbee is now called just Ultimate. Ultimate Frisbee Rules To begin play the ultimate players from each team line up on their end zones and the defense team throws the disc to the other team as a kick-off. We normally throw the frisbee far so the offensive team has poor field position and a chance for the us to get down the field soon enough to stop advances. The disc may be moved in any direction by completing a pass to a teammate. After catching a pass, a player is required to come to a stop as quickly as possible, and then can only move their non-pivot foot.

The team who just scored remains in that end zone, and the opposing team takes the opposite end zone. An incomplete pass results in a change...

As my entire family went outside to feel the cool breeze, we took our Frisbee out and started to play with it. The Frisbee we played had LED lights so that when the Frisbee landed, it glowed. SMACK! I accidentally smacked my brother with the Frisbee when I threw it at him. Also, I accidently threw the Frisbee and hit our neighbor’s wasp nest. I thought they will be proud but it turned out that the wasps were kind of angry, by the sound they made. I took a bike ride around my neutral neighborhood.

...have continued to maintain my academic standards. Nevertheless, I have also made sure that I am more than an academic person. I am an active one as well. In middle school, the most popular game during lunch was a basketball game called Salt and Pepper (white vs. black). The first day of school, I stepped onto the basketball courts and was greeted by cries of consternation, "Who is he? Is he salt or pepper?" But after the game, I had made a name for myself. From then onward, I would be known as Spice, and the game we played became Salt, Pepper, and Spice. When I moved to California, things were no different. I continued to play an active part both academically and socially. My involvement with Cross-country, Speech and Debate, Ultimate Frisbee and numerous clubs guaranteed that I would not be only known as an Honors student. Like myself, Duke is much more than an academic institution; it is a living institution. I feel that I will be given the opportunity to excel both academically and socially. Duke is a university known for its rich history and strong academic program. And, at the same time, it is also known for its innovation and progressiveness. These are qualities which draw me to the college. In addition, Duke and I have a lot in common. The two most important extracurricular activities I have are a major part of Duke University. Duke's Speech team is known for its strong Extemp squad. I remember the time when my speech coach asked me what schools I was applying to...
