About the Global Spirit Hunt
The Global Spirit Hunt is a 48-hour celebration of Spirit of the Game.
You can join up as a team, or as an individual player.
​
The cost is free -- the game is virtual -- the prizes are donated -- the joy is REAL.
​
WHO SHOULD PLAY
​
The hunt is fun for people of any age or experience.
​
It's particularly useful for coaches of new youth teams looking for a way to discuss and teach about Spirit of the Game.
​
It's also a lot of fun for people who have been playing a long, long, long time -- some of the challenges are a wonderful reminder of the early days of the sport.
​
As teams sign up, you'll be able to see who has joined.

HISTORY
​
International Spirit of the Game day is every year on the first Saturday in December.
​
For many years, this day was celebrated with local events, clinics, activities and tournaments.
​
Then in 2019, the Covid pandemic changed everything. People had to quarantine, team sports were unsafe.
​
But the basic joy of iSOTGDay needed to be preserved. A creative solution was needed.
​
And so a virtual SOTG-themed scavenger hunt was created by the World Flying Disc Federation, to give communities around the world a way to connect, laugh, do throwing drills and sprints, wear old jerseys, and remember why people play games with SOTG in the first place: to challenge themselves and to connect with others.
​
Plus it always feels good to win, even if it's in a Zoom meeting :)
​
This year, WFDF decided not to run the hunt for iSOTGDay,
so a team of previous Hunt Advisors decided to make it happen independently.
​
This year should be the biggest year ever for the GSH...
don't miss out!
