The First Time - AUG 2005

Sunday 14 March 2010 at 3:19 pm Where we left off, some time ago, was that MUD had come 2nd in WA, and thus qualified for Australian University Games for the first time ever. The challenges were not quite over yet... (more)

2009 - A brief recap and why it doesn't matter

Monday 14 December 2009 at 10:27 am

To sum up 2009 - there are signs of promise, but it was otherwise barren.

To explain why the fact that Murdoch didn't field a team all year doesn't matter requires a bit more explanation. And yes, for those that are wondering, I've been asked a lot about Murdoch recently...

2005 - MUD Gets Up

Thursday 03 December 2009 at 2:10 pm

So, where we left off, Ado had just graduated. The remaining member of the committee at the time was, well, me - Hutch. (From now things will move into the first person) In January, I gathered what crew we had - there was 3 of us. Fletcher, Rich and me. Of course it was January, and this really was a rookie mistake - no one at uni is here in January, let alone the kind of people who play Ultimate. Regardless, we arranged between us to run an O-Day stall.

2010 - Return of MUD

Thursday 26 November 2009 at 3:40 pm 2009 saw poor old MUD almost disappear. As someone who is no longer an active playing member of the club (hello social membership!), it was pretty heartbreaking to watch the struggles of a club - from the sideline - whose members were simply leading lives that were far too interesting (hello trips to India, Europe and elsewhere!) to make Ultimate a bullet point on the list of life, let alone a priority. Take it from me though - and as our so-far incomplete history shows - MUD has come back from much worse. Without too much more dilly-dallying, the 2010 calendar! (more)

Super 4s Anyone?

Tuesday 24 November 2009 at 2:59 pm Many of you may have noticed there is a new, flat green space next to (of all the great places on campus) the Tavern. It isn't full sized but it would be good enough for some fun games of fours - anyone interested in having one between exams and everyone leaving? Email me.

Little America, Little Asia

Tuesday 24 November 2009 at 2:57 pm So, history isn't a straight line right? There are many strands happening all at once, sometimes coming together, sometimes splitting apart. Instead of talking directly about the line of Dictators-for-Life, I would like to take the time out here to add a little side-story that might help you understand what happens next. This story starts sometime around 2000... (more)

The One They Call 'Ado'

Monday 16 November 2009 at 2:57 pm 2004 was the year, and things were happening in and around campus. The Ultimate club also gets a new President. (more)

In the beginning...

Friday 13 November 2009 at 3:41 pm

Ok, so whilst I still have the motivation and the memory, every now and then (meaning probably everything in the next few weeks) I'm going to write down on this here web page the history of Murdoch Ultimate. Read on - I guarantee it will aid your procrastination at least another 10 minutes.

MUD Mondays are moving!

Monday 09 November 2009 at 12:08 pm The time has finally come! The Uni, in all the time the ol' Hutch has been here (that's since 2003 for those who were wondering), has said that field renovations were coming 'next summer'. Well, it seems as though 'next summer' has finally been changed to 'this summer'. (more)
