Revival of Discours!

Here it is! After 5 long years, it's back!

The AUM communications team presents the 2011 version of our magazine Discours, which has undergone a serious facelift! As a sign of the times and technological evolution, it will also be offered in an electronic version. Paper, it's so 2006!

You will find dynamic and diverse contact about many aspects of your favourite sport. It's a magazine designed for your enjoyment and written by passionate people who want to share their love of the sport. We would like to sincerely thank everyone who contributed to this edition!

In order to help us plan future editions, please do not hesitate to give us your opinion on the content or to share your great ideas for future issues at comm@montrealultimate.com.

Until then, happy reading!

Remember back in the day when you received a copy of the AUM's annual magazine called Discours? One would find information about Summer League results, read player and team profiles, and all other material pertinent to AUM members.

Well, Discours is making a comeback - online! The first electronic edition is scheduled to be published just in time for this year's Gala. The ezine will be written by AUM members for AUM members.

Therefore, we invite you to submit articles, photos, videos, etc. before Friday, August 26th, 2011 to our editor in chief, Michel Blanchette at comm@montrealultimate.ca Here is a list of subjects to help inspire your creativity:

• Know an awesome player, volunteer, team, mentor, Junior, etc. that you want everyone to take notice of? Send us their profile.
• Recount your first Ultimate experience - the good, the bad, the ugly - we want to hear about it.
• Tell us about the best ever cheer, best ever game played, etc.
• Recommend THE Ultimate tournament to participate in.
• Exercises to do before and after games, ways to eat healthly, training programs (If you have any expertise in these areas, we want to hear from you.)
• List 10 reasons why you play Ultimate; 10 reasons why your life IS Ultimate.
• Want to show off your artistic talents? Submit a cartoon, caricature or create a crossword or word search.

League results, offensive and defensive strategies, rule explanations, links towards blogs, tournaments and other sites will also be included.

Note that the ezine will be bilingual, so please feel free to submit your article either in French or English.

We are also looking for extra volunteers (writers, graphic artists, photographers, etc.) to help us publish this newly energized edition of Discours. If you are interested, please contact us at comm@montrealultimate.ca

We look forward to receiving your submissions,

The Communication committee
