USS Recruit was a landlocked "dummy" training ship of the United States Navy, located at the Naval Training Center in the Point Loma area of San Diego. She was built to scale, two-thirds the size of a destroyer escort, and was commissioned on July 27, 1949. Recruit was commissioned for 18 years, for much of that period the only landlocked ship to hold that status in the U.S. Navy."Sailing" on a sea of concrete at the Naval Training Center, she assisted with the training of over 50,000 new recruits per year, providing an education in the fundamentals of shipboard drills and procedures, using standard deck and bridge gear like that found on all naval vessels, including lifelines, accommodation ladders, signal halyards, searchlights, the engine order telegraph and the helm. However, due to her landlocked status, Recruit lacked an engine or screw, and therefore was affectionately nicknamed the "USS Neversail." Reflecting her dual identity as both a ship and a building, she was also known as Building 430, located on Geary Drive between Evans and Chauncey roads.Recruit was decommissioned in March 1967, due to the inability to classify the unique ship in a computerized registry of Navy vessels. However she was later recommissioned in 1982, and refurbished to look like an Oliver Hazard Perry class frigate. Commissioned or otherwise, she served continuously as a training facility from her construction in 1949 until the base was closed by the BRAC commission in 1997.

We started in 2012 with one pick-up game, It then turned into three pickup games a week. We noticed a lack of enthusiasm and decided we needed to do something about it. The First Tournament called the Fall Classic was born. Nine teams showed for the tournament. It continued to grow from there to two tournaments a year and two leagues a year. This new year brings much change and new adventures. Recently we decided to partner with Include Autism and Autism Speaks. They will provide education and awareness in the community and we will in turn assist them with putting a new security system in the facility. It is also exciting to partner with SpikeBall for our events. We love those guys from SpikeBall and we are excited about future events as well. We are also looking into partnering with an Organization from Tijuana for a year round training facility. For someone who might not think it is possible for them to join with us we have partnered with Thrivent Financial and we can work together to help you and in turn you can join the Legacy Team and get involved. The future looks bright for SpikeBall and Ultimate frisbee and we look forward to the future.
