Spring is finally here, and we’re kicking it off with a classic! All skills are welcome, and we highly encourage new players to come out and learn how to play ultimate! Spring league is a draft league, so ALL players who sign up will be placed on a team! However, this year, we have a whole new and exciting format to help stimulate beach ultimate in our community brought by your comments and requests!
We will be having female-matching and male-matching games on the beach on Sunday mornings starting on April 28th! The teams will be divided in a hat-league style and the games will by 4 v 4. Those initial games will be part of the official league and will have common standings as well as a league-end tournament. However, we will also put together mixed games from those same teams to follow the initial morning games that will be unofficial, but organized, for those who wish to stay and play in a mixed format. This change comes from the many comments and thoughts we received from the spring league questionnaire we put out a few months ago.

Is there a way for women to sign up for a pick-up list (but not join an official team) in case a team is short ladies and needs subs? I’ll be out of town for half the dates, so don’t want to join an official team and be absent for half the games.
Ditto! I can only attend maybe 2 of the days listed.
Yes! There will be a sub pool listed sent out shortly. And we’ll absolutely need subs throughout the season.
