Jargon key

As with most sports Ultimate comes with it's very own confusing jargon.

  • Mixed - Refers to teams that compete in the UK Ultimate National league Mixed division, simply put it's male and females playing together.
  • Open - Refers to teams that compete in the UK Ultimate National league Open Divisions. The league is "open to all players", the team itself might still have selection criteria / invitation only policies
  • Pick-up - this is where you can just turn up and play, no experience or commitment required
  • Tour - refers to the UK Ultimate league structure. A series of weekends where teams meet and play.
