Winter is coming, and that means one thing: more ultimate. November starts the Winter MUFA season, and we have both indoor and outdoor ultimate options for you to participate in!
Registration for all leagues below is open. Registration will be on a first-come, first-serve basis. All winter leagues are hat leagues, where players register individually or with a friend and teams are created by the league.

Winter Goaltimate (Indoors)
Goaltimate (or Goalty for short) is a half-court frisbee game that combines elements of basketball and ultimate, with goals scored by throwing a disc through a large hoop to a teammate on the other side. It's a fast-paced and fun alternative to traditional Ultimate.
Goalty leagues will play nine or ten games over nine or ten weeks (unless there are weather-related closures.)

Quick FAQ
What is a hat league?
Our hat leagues are where players join individually (or with one friend) rather than as a full team. Players rate themselves during registration, and after registration closes, we form teams based on the player ratings to try and have the most balanced teams possible. Full teams are not permitted to join the fall league.
What is baggage?
To "bag" with someone, associate your registration with someone else's to ensure you get on the same team. So you can bag with your friend, S/O, or whomever you choose, and they will be placed on the same team as you.
What does MMP or FMP stand for?
MMP means male-matchup preferred or male-matching player.
FMP means female-matchup preferred or female-matching player.
What do Mixed, Open, FMP, MMP mean for the league names?
These reference the format that the league is played in.
Mixed: Alternating 4MMP/3FMP - 3MMP/4FMP gender-ratio (note: this ratio only applies to outdoor ultimate)
Open: Teams of any gender-matching preferred players, no required ratio on the field
MMP: Only Male-Matching Preferred players can play in this league
FMP: Only Female-Matching Preferred players can play in this league
Agender, gender non-conforming (GNC), genderqueer, or gender fluid players are encouraged to join leagues and match up with the players that they feel most comfortable playing with and marking. The goal is to make all MUFA programs more welcoming and safe for all athletes.
