PLEASE NOTE Entry is now open until Thursday 15th December at 13:00pm. Following this deadline we will confirm entries following that deadline to allow teams to start planning for the event.

Ultimate is often played in day, weekend or week-long tournaments at which teams compete in a number of games rather than playing one-off fixtures.
We aim to ensure that schedules provide suitable game time and that teams have adequate rest.
You can find the indoor rules of Ultimate here, but if you have any questions please ask.
After each game please make sure your team provides a Spirit Score for your opposition. More information can be found here.

Submit Spirit scores after each game using the button at the top of the page. The process usually takes a few minutes.
Scoring should be a team effort
Go through each category on the online scorecard (you might want to remind the team what each one means)
Ask players to use their fingers to indicate their score (0-4). Ask anyone who scores more or less than 2 to briefly explain their reason - this may help others who can change their score if they want to. Try to go with the majority
Remember a score of 2 is ‘good’ or ‘as expected.
Leave a comment - this is essential if any of your scores are 0 or 4.
