Note: the USA Ultimate event archives serve as a living document to preserve and share our organization and sport's rich history. Although care has gone into researching information before posting, we realize that inaccuracies may exist, and seek help from the Ultimate community to help fill in the gaps of knowledge that may otherwise be lost. Please make use of the comments sections on these pages to share stories and information that are relevant to those years and competition divisions.
In time, we will add to these pages with more information, detail, and better presentation as we go through our extensive and continually growing Ultimate archives. Contact archives@usaultimate.org if you have any information or materials that can help make these archives a better resource for the Ultimate community. Of particular interest to us are dontations of any photographic, video, or physical materials that may be deteriorating in Ultimate alumni's attics.
