Timeouts

Player Information

Water

• The only source of water at the RAC is one water fountain/small spigot near the bathrooms. We will have some large jugs at tournament central but it’s still a good idea for players to come with several full water bottles to avoid long waits to refill.

Food

• Frisbee central will have food including: fruit, bagels, peanut butter and jelly, cream cheese, and other Costco treats. We will also have ice in case of injury.

Injury Prevention and Treatment

• We will have a licensed massage therapist available at the fields for the duration of the tournament to help with warm up, recovery and chronic injuries. 

• We will have ice and wraps in case of injuries.

• For acute injuries, urgent care is Providence ExpressCare (1350 Marvin Rd NE, Lacey, WA 98516) 1.1 miles back toward I-5 in the shops along the side of the Home Depot parking lot or Kaiser Permanente Olympia Medical Center (700 Lilly Rd NE, Olympia, WA 98506) about 6 miles/20 minutes away.

General 

• No alcohol, tobacco, or illegal substances/acts on the fields!
