2022 Ultra Masters All Canadian Throws Awardees Announced

Ultra Throw is proud to announce the Ultra Masters All Canadian (UMAC) Throws Standards recipients for 2022!

"Each February, Ulta Throw searches the previous year’s results of all Canadian throwers from age 30 and up,” said the founder of Ultra Throw, Dave McDonald. “The list of throwers who have achieved these high standards of excellence has been compiled. We applaud you!"

"This is a club venture and is not done in conjunction with BC Athletics or Athletics Canada. It is our way to promote the ‘throws’ and to bring recognition to the many great Master throwers. It does not matter if the throwers are own Ultra Throw members, British Columbians, or from any other province in Canada – whether you live here or abroad. These performances deserve to be recognized.”

In addition, if you are on the 2022 or 2021 list of athletes who have achieved standard(s) and wish to receive a ‘certificate of achievement,’ send an email to Dave McDonald (ultrathrow@gmail.com) and a pdf of a personalized certificate will be emailed to you free of charge. See the example below.

The sporting year of 2019 has been quite spectacular in many ways for the Ultra Throw. The vision of its president and coach, Dave McDonald, has been translated into action which in turn contributed to placing the Club on quite a high pedestal. It can boast of rubbing shoulders with the old and well established Athletic clubs and its members acquitted themselves rather creditably. The results produced by them speak volumes of their perseverance and hard work not only at the provincial level but at the Canadian as well as at the world level. The review of these results will show as to where our individual members and our Club stand per se. We have drawn lessons from this year’s competitions and have carried these home to ponder over them with a view to producing better results next year. The glimpses of the results as reflected in their standings in the Canadian and World Rankings will vouch for the strength of this fledgling Throws Club.
