The Durham Ultimate Club is launching a Wednesday night (outdoor) COED ultimate league this Summer. This is the first time this league has run and it is ideal for all skill levels. It is called a “hat” league because all the players sign up and then the teams are made to try and even out the skill level. It is like throwing everyone’s name into a hat and then picking the teams. Games will be played in Oshawa and Whitby and will start at 7 pm in June and July and then 6 pm in August. I would like to encourage everyone that intends to play to try and bring someone new into this league. The idea behind this league is to offer current members more value for their membership but to also try and attract new members so we can increases the overall size of the league. If we can bring more people into the Wednesday league this may allow us to grow the Sunday leagues. If anyone can post this information at their local gym or advertise it to people they play other sports with that would be appreciated.
Signing up as an Individual
This league is very social and a great way to meet new people. Whether you are new to the sport or a veteran you will be impressed with the spirit of all those involved. Teams will often go out to socialize and eat after a game.
Signing up as a Couple
COED Ultimate is the perfect sport for couples with small children that want to stay active. Since substitutions are made after each point one parent can play while the other watches the kids on the sideline and then they can switch for the next point. There are often other families on the team as well and the children end of playing together. When you sign up link yourself by your last name.
Signing up as a small group
If you and a bunch of friends want to sign up this is no problem just link yourself to a specific name or word and we will make sure you are on the same team. In general there will only be groups of up to 4 people, however, in some cases larger groups may be allowed. Try to bring in some rookies to your group rather than just linking with people that are already in the league.
