Ultimate Frisbee

 

Ultimate Frisbee is a self-refereed non-contact team sport and one of the fastest growing sports in the UK. It is played both indoors and outdoors (grass and beach) making it perfect all year-round! There are 3 divisions: Open (Men's), Women's and mixed. If you've never heard of Ultimate Frisbee, check out this introductory video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEKnqFBajiI&t=8s.

FAQ

Q: I’ve never played Frisbee before, is that a problem?

              A: Not at all, the majority of people pick up Frisbee while at uni so everyone is learning at the same time.

 

Q: How often are games?

              A: We play BUCS games every Wednesday afternoon, either at home in Oadby or away with travel provided. There are also regular tournament weekends, where we go away for a weekend to play multiple games; these are either BUCS tournaments or fun ones!

 

Q: What costs are associated with Ultimate Frisbee?

              A: Team membership: £20

Team Leicester membership: £110

or

Gold gym membership: £165 (early bird) £198 (standard) 

(The Gold gives you access to both university gyms for the whole year) 

Other costs: travel to tournaments & entry fee - £10-20 per tournament

(We do try our best to keep costs as low as we can throughout the year :))

 

Q: What do I need to bring to trainings?

              A: Please turn up in sports attire and trainers. Bring a bottle of water as well. For outdoor trainings, footballs boots are useful but not essential.

Q: How do I join? 

              A: Come down to any of our trainings to give it a go! Membership can be bought from https://le.ac.uk/sports/membership

Look forward to welcoming you at trainings!
