Whether its sun, rain or snow, outdoor training takes place on a Thursday evening at Nelson Mendela park. Outdoor training is a joint session with Red, the open Leicester team. The training session takes into account the various levels of skill that players will have. Red contains some very experienced people who are willing to teach new players the throws and basics of the game, so there is no need to feel intimidated when coming for the first time. Training takes the form of various drills to improve both short and long distance throwing, as well as movement and catching under pressure. After the training, a game is played until people cannot take anymore and this has been known to go on till 11:30pm! When a session runs for this long, the floodlights are turned on so that the game can continue. When attending an outdoor session, be sure to bring with you one light and one dark t-shirt to distinguish the different teams during a game.

Indoor training takes place in the John Sandford Sports Centre on a Friday evening at 6:30pm. The session lasts for one hour and includes practice drills to improve throwing, catching and movement, and finishes off with a friendly game. Before any indoor tournaments, this session is also used to practice new plays. When coming to an indoor training session, make sure to bring with you one light and one dark t-shirt to distinguish the different teams during a game. Every so often the Leicester University Frisbee Team, the Jesters, join our indoor training session for a friendly hour game. Indoor training is a fun yet energetic session and usually finishes with a trip to the student union in the evening.
