NORTH MYRTLE BEACH (Press Release) –
More than 220 teams representing colleges from 25 states will participate in the 19th annual High Tide College Spring Break Ultimate Frisbee Tournament March 1-27 at the North Myrtle Beach Sports Complex.
High Tide is the largest college spring break ultimate Frisbee tournament in the world. It has come to North Myrtle Beach after many successful years in Georgia. The event includes four weekly tournaments running Monday-Thursday throughout March, enabling it to accommodate all college spring break periods. Each team will stay an average of four nights in North Myrtle Beach.
Ultimate Frisbee is a limited-contact team field sport played with a flying disc (Frisbee). Points are scored by passing the Frisbee to a teammate in the opposing team’s end zone. Other basic rules require that players must maintain a pivot and not take steps while holding the disk, and interceptions and incomplete passes are turnovers.
