3 Times Sockeye’s Flow Carved Up Machine’s Defence in the US Open 2021 Final

We take a look at the best moments of flow from the US Open 2021 ultimate frisbee final, paying particular attention to the techniques the players use to keep the disc moving quickly. We’ve added a Possession Clock in the top left which counts how long the disc is in each player’s hands, leading to an Average Time of Possession for the team at the end of the point.

Every player in the world could learn from Manuela Cardenas

Every player can also help the Colombian people at this crucial time. Protests are taking place across the country which begun after proposed tax reforms by the government, and have now become a broad call for improvements to Colombia’s pension, health and education systems, as well as against inequality and police brutality. At least 24 people have died since the protests started. Violence from the police and security forces against civilians is ongoing and has been condemned by the UN.

Tyler Kinley on Ho-stack Poaching

Sockeye’s Tyler Kinley joins Felix to talk about a series of tweets he posted on 29-30 Dec, specifically the frustrations he feels when defenders fail to poach effectively against a horizontal stack offence. We then see an example of a successful deep poach, and talk about how teamplay can be used in different ways to cover for the poach – to afford the defender the liberty to leave their 1-to-1 matchup, and keep the offence contained effectively. Full interview/analysis available for Patrons.
