Whiplash was founded in 2013. Back then, we were known as the Monstars. From our humble beginnings, the goal of this team has been inclusivity. We want to offer a place for people of all athletic backgrounds to find camaraderie. We don’t have tryouts and anyone is welcome on our team regardless of if they have ever picked up a disc before. This team has grown a lot over its seven years. From winning our first game at Big D Little D in 2013 to now in 2020 winning the tournament for the second year in a row, the hardworking drive that this team has has been backed by love for our teammates and the willingness to put it all on the field for them. We rebranded our team in 2019 and became Whiplash. We decided that the mentality of the team has shifted, and we have gained a much more competitive mindset. We strive to improve for each other so that we can see the team succeed. The thing that stands out about this team is that people don’t just want to know each other as teammates, people are intentional about getting to know each other and hanging out with each other outside of practice and tournaments. This team is a family and we would love for you to be a part of it.
