Dan “Stork” Roddick is a long-time disc sport champion and organizer in both the U.S. and internationally. Stork was an early star of the game of Ultimate with college champion Rutgers University (with a record of 45-1), and he was a winner of national and world championships in individual events including disc golf, freestyle, and accuracy. Stork was one of the driving forces behind promoting and supporting Ultimate and all other disc sports through his role as head of Wham-O’s sports marketing department from 1975-96, ensuring sufficient financial support for the organizing bodies in the USA early in their existence. Stork was also instrumental in the international arena, serving as World Flying Disc Federation President from 1986-1992, Chair of the WFDF Rules and Individual Events Committees from 1993-2004, and as secretary and executive director from 1998-2003, and currently as Senior Advisor and Records Keeper. He continues in his role as Director for Special Projects for the PDGA. An Eagle Scout in his youth, Stork has written numerous articles and books on disc sports, and he is credited with framing Ultimate’s defining “Spirit of the Game” philosophy which has guided play since the late 1970s. He has been inducted into the Frisbee, Disc Golf, Freestyle, and Ultimate Halls of Fame. Outside of his disc sports career, he served as a college lecturer in sociology and as a writer and consultant. Stork received his PhD in sociology from Rutgers University and is a long-time resident of Pasadena, CA.
