Today was the first full day of NUTC Gold packed full of greatness. Here is a brief summary of some of the things that took place today. We had several very special guests today including Greg Connelly, chair of the observer committee for the UPA (USA Ultimate) and Dr. Alan Goldberg, a world renown sports psychologist [check out his website at: http://www.competitivedge.com]. This morning, I videotaped each campers throws so that we could review them later in the day in a one on one format which was very beneficial especially since most players here had never seen themselves on film before today. Greg had perfect timing today as he showed up right as campers were discussing the rule of the day which for today was picks. Being an expert in the area he was able to provide some excellent insight and clarification. After lunch, the campers found out which teams they are going to be on for the rest of the week. This will allow them ample time to strategize and bond as a team. The teams scrimmaged each other for the rest of the afternoon until dinner time. After dinner the entire camp along with some community members came to hear a fantastic lecture by Dr. Goldberg on mental toughness and mental preparedness. Upon conclusion of the lecture we had floor meetings and in five minutes it will be lights out for the campers and myself. So until tomorrow, here's a peek at some of the action today in the form of some awesome photos! Enjoy!
