AmsterJAM 2014 was:

Super high on spirit in combination with awesome conditions.

I want to start by thanking all 2014 amsterJAMmers! You rocked!!!

Temperatures were moderate so the Dutch beachbums didn’t go out and leaving all of the hardpack for us to JAM on.

During the Saturday morning players meeting it was unanimously decided to not go for the random co-op’s division and only do Pairs division; One round on Saturday and the finals on Sunday leaving plenty of time to JAM. And Jamming we did. All day the beach was filled with several jamming groups:P

There were 22 people competing and a handful of jammers joined jams but not the tournament.

Many many many extra thanks go to Tom Leitner for his help all weekend long, being the headjudge and initiating a simple and ideal format for judging AmsterJAM (Each team that didn’t play in a round gave a number between one and ten for all three categories)

Visitors info:

Freestyle frisbee is a dynamic sport appealing to both young-and-old.
During AmsterJAM you will see skills that are the result of multiple years, often decades, intense training.

If you are not so skilled yet? You are even more encouraged to join or come and see AmsterJAM.

One can do more with a frisbee than most of us can imagine!

Come and see us manipulate the frisbee if you don't believe me.

For now you could check out the AmsterJAM archive at the top of this page for more pics and movies.
