In the glare of the summer sun, an apparition appears across the horizon.
The humble Frisbee is a favourite pastime for many when trying to beat the summer heat or for those who want to stay fit in an enjoyable way. As stated in the August 17, 1976, Sault Star article, “Kenner and Westerfield perform at exhibitions, sports events, carnivals and television programs. [In addition to] promotional work for breweries and Frisbee companies.”For performances and exhibitions, those who took to the hobby of Frisbee flinging developed a plethora of tricks, including the “splits-over-the-shoulder backhand return,” as witnessed in the accompanying photo.
The sport of Frisbee developed both in the ways in which it can be played, but also in popularity. It can be played for recreation or competitions, which Kenner described as “freestyle pair tournaments where judges award points on the basis of skill and finesse” . Furthermore, the sport evolved into a team sport called Ultimate Frisbee, which is similar to football.
