Masters Ultimate

A Lifelong Sport

The masters division represents the ideal blend of community and competition. Whether you’re recently retired from the club division, transitioning away from the commitment required to play elite-level ultimate, or simply looking to have fun and reconnect with old teammates and opponents, the masters division offers a spirited and competitive outlet across three age-restricted categories – masters, grand masters and great grand masters. Lace up your cleats (or kick off your sandals) and grab a disc. It’s time to get the band back together and play some ultimate. USA Ultimate has regional and national playing opportunities on grass or the beach.
