Boys Workouts

Every MONDAY and WEDNESDAY, there will be workouts after school at 3 in the Lindbergh Center. Everyone is welcome to and should come get faster and stronger but it is mandatory for Varsity.

Hopkins Varsity Ultimate

Hopkins Varsity Boys,

We are starting to get into the full swing of the winter season and the number of people at practices and workouts is bad. Being on Varsity is a big responsibility and it means that you can't just miss practice because you feel like it. So for now on, I will be keeping track of attendance. If you miss practice and you don't notify a captain or if it's a bad excuse, you will be running a certain amount of killers at the start of practice. I know a lot of you have other sports, so this is not focused towards you guys. Get it together boys.

*UPDATED* Upcoming Practices and Hurt Events

Hi Guys -

As you may notice on the right hand menu, our winter practice space is coming together.

Here's a quick update on the next week ahead:

The Girls and Varsity teams have a practice on Sunday 12/6 from 8-10 AM at the Plymouth dome. We only have half a field on this day, so we don't have enough room for all three teams this time. There will be more space available throughout the winter and everyone *should* get some time to use this facility.

The JV team has practice on Tuesday 12/8 from 5:15-7 PM at Williston Center. We don't officially get the court until 5:30, but be there early so you have some time to change your shoes, etc. Please bring indoor shoes as this is a synthetic basketball court floor. Bring a WHITE shirt, a DARK shirt, YOUR OWN WATER, and a disc as well.

The Girls and Varsity teams have been invited to St. Olaf in Northfield, MN, on Saturday 12/12 for an indoor scrimmage. The Girls are going from 10 AM - 12 PM, and the Boys Varsity from 12-2 PM.
  • Girls, please meet at Lindberg at 8:15 AM to carpool.
  • Boys, please meet at Lindbergh at 10:15 AM to carpool.
All players who are attending this scrimmage need to bring the signed waiver found here. If you are under 18, your parent or guardian must sign this as well.

Both of these trips, though indoor, are weather permitting (i.e., we're not driving through a blizzard). Thanks to Hurt Alum Andrew 'RZR' Kelley for inviting us!

Again, in this flu season, sharing water is IRRESPONSIBLE. Do not share water and get your teammates sick! Bring your own bottle or use the water fountain at Williston.

Welcome to the Hurt Family, Evie!


Evelyn Rae Vetter Raisanen was born into the Hopkins Hurt family on Saturday, November 21, 2009. "Evie" is the first daughter of our former coach, Jake, and his wife Christina. Both Mom and Baby are healthy, though as you can see above, Dad is tired already!

Congrats Jake and Christina!!!

Varsity Practice - Tues 12/1 - Williston

Hello Kiddos -

I hope you all ate too much turkey and other things over the weekend, and got to spend some quality time with those close to you!

Hurt is back to work, tomorrow night (Tuesday 12/1), the Varsity Boys' team has practice from 5:15-7 PM at the Williston Center. You can find out where the Williston Center is by checking the Hopkins Ultimate map.

We get the courts at 5:30, but please be there at 5:15 so you have some time to get your shoes on, warm up on the sidelines (NOT ON THE COURT), etc.

For those who have never been, the Williston space is a hardwood gym floor. Please wear appropriate footwear, but don't wear the same shoes on the court that you wore outside if you can help it. Continue to bring everything else needed for a practice, including a WHITE shirt, a DARK shirt, a DISC, and YOUR OWN WATER.

IN THIS FLU SEASON, SHARING/STEALING FROM YOUR TEAMMATES' WATER BOTTLE(s) IS UNACCEPTABLE AND IRRESPONSIBLE. Don't get your brothers sick, bring your own water!

Please call me if you are unable to make it or if you have any questions.

Workout with Colin "Tater" Camp

Hurt’ems:

For those of you that don’t know me, my name is Colin Camp. I was on the team the last three years and I am now a freshman at Madison.

I’ll be home this weekend for break and since I plan on working out, I’d like to extend an invitation to any of you (jv, girls, varsity) to come join me for a college-level type workout. It will be good opportunity to learn some of the hard work that it takes to become a great ultimate player and a national level team.

If you’re interested I’ll be at Lindbergh Center on Wednesday at 3 pm and would love to meet some new faces and see some I already know.

If you plan on attending or are even considering it, write in the comments so I have an idea of the number of people who will be there.

Happy Holidays,

Colin Camp

p.s. Hope to see some alumni there as well!
