Over 500 Youth Ultimate players between the ages of 10 to 19 took part in UK Ultimate’s recent Indoor National Championship Events across six divisions (Under 14, Under 17 and Under 20 for both Open and Women’s) which were held between November 2018 and February 2019.

The top rankings in each division were dominated by some of our longest-standing school teams. For the third year running, the titles were shared between AirBadgers (St Peter’s School, Exeter) and Flux (Twycross House School, Twycross), with even Under 17 players now seasoned veterans attending their fourth or fifth edition of these competitions.

We were also excited to welcome seven teams from newly-playing schools or Junior Clubs to their first of these events. Several of these have been able to attend thanks to UK Ultimate’s School Affiliation Scheme which offers free discs to schools to help them get started with Ultimate, supported by donations from players and the public.

Thank you to all of the teams that competed at the UXON & Cool Down events at the weekend. Despite the pretty wet weather we hope that you all had a good time and played some fun, competitive Ultimate! 

Congratulations to University College London 1 for taking home the title of University Mixed Outdoor National Champions following a tight final against University of Birmingham 1! Also, well done to the University of Sussex for winning the University Cool Down event down in Cardiff. 

On 22nd-23rd June 2019, the following events will be taking place across the UK as part of the NEW Club Outdoor Competition Structure:

We are excited to announce that the following players have been selected to represent Great Britain in the Women's Masters division at the European Ultimate Championships to be held later this year.

We are pleased to announce that entries for Junior Open Outdoor Nationals & Schools' National Championships 2019 are now open!

The event is being held at University of Leicester Playing Fields, Stoughton Road in Leicester on Sunday 30th June 2019. It is a ONE DAY event.

Entries are open in all three divisions: Under-14, Under-17 and Junior (Under-20). All divisions are classified as Open, meaning that any combination of male and female players is fine.

It has come to our attention that some teams are forgetting how important it is to treat our tournament volunteers and organisers with the appropriate politeness and respect.

Without local clubs and universities using their spare time and effort to help us run and organise our events, including helping teams with cheap accommodation options to bring down tournament costs, we would struggle to deliver the excellent events that you have come to know and expect. Please bear this in mind when you’re next attending a UKU tournament or being hosted in someone’s home for the event.
