How much did you pay for Frisbees? I was looking more at the cost to build a pyramid for the price of the field elements. I also think it hurts our team not having a gym in order to get the 54 foot length, but thats usually not a big deal overall for most teams.

You need 50+ feet to get realistic testing or practice as an FCS.

We only had 6 frisbees this year so I think we spent $30 then? I don't remember the pricing on them.

We did not have a gym either, we used the school's cafeteria and simply taped out a field. it wasn't perfect, but it was close enough.
