Dating in Frisbee, Building Great Teams with Bailey Shigley, Noah Coolman, & Della Moran | Ep 71

2 hours 3 minutes

Bailey Shigley & Noah Coolman join us along with Della Moran (Alex's sweetheart) to talk about dating in ultimate from the perspective of couples who both play and dating a frisbee player as a non-player. Frisbee takes up a lot of time across UFA and Club, and doesn't always leave a ton of space for a relationship. Listen in to hear how they navigate those challenges.

Bailey and Noah also talk about growing up in the Seattle ultimate scene and what makes it so unique. Both live in Colorado now and play for Molly Brown & Johnny Bravo respectively.

Bailey is a (reluctant) champion with Molly Brown & was a captain in 2024. She also is a Quandary alum and WUL Champion with Alpenglow. Bailey is very familiar with winning, and gives us some insight on what has made Molly Brown & Quandary so successful year after year.

Noah is one of the most explosive athletes in the game. He is an Oregon alum, played for Sockeye & Cascades before joining us in Colorado where he plays for Johnny Bravo & Summit. He fills up the stat sheet with huge blocks and insane skies. A big reason why Quinn is such a good player is because he has to go against Noah at every practice.

Della Moran is Alex's sweetie pie. She tells us what it's like to date an ultimate player as someone who doesn't play the sport. She is pursuing her master's in psychology & has a keen interest in relationships from that perspective as well. You may have seen her in the background of Alex's camera making a few cameos from time to time.
