Summer League Play - 3 Regions / 3 Leagues

This summer, we offer leagues in 3 regions of the Bay Area. Each one is run a little differently, so please look over this info carefully. For those of you new to the area, or new to the sport of Ultimate, there is some general background information about our leagues, too.

Marin Ultimate Summer League (Friday nights in San Rafael starting Friday June 11th) - This league, also known as MUSL, had its annual mixer / pickup game on June 4th, and it starts regular season play on June 11th. Although the men's wait list has started forming, it will probably get processed quickly as the plan is to expand rosters. Women's spaces remain available, too. Please consult the MUSL home page for more information.

San Francisco Recreational Summer League (Tuesday or Thursday nights in SF starting June 22nd / 24th) - This league, also known as SF Rec League, opened registrations in early June. Women's spaces remain available. Please consult the SF Rec League home page for more information.

Club Summer League (Monday or Thursday nights in Berkeley) - This league, also known as CSL, opened bids in May and started play on June 7th and 10th. This offering is targeted for Mixed club teams looking for more regular practice and scrimmage time against other club-level competition, but it also takes in pickup teams, too. All team bids were allocated already in May, but if you are a free agent looking for a team this summer, we might be able to find a space for you. Registrations to CSL are NOT tied in with the normal registration process for MUSL, SF Rec League, and other events. Please visit the CSL home page to read more how this league works and instructions for registering as an individual / free-agent.

Introduce Kids to Ultimate - Summer Camp 2010

Kids ages 8-14 can sign up for summer camp in 3 different regions: East Bay (Berkeley), Peninsula (Burlingame), and Marin (San Rafael). If you have kids in this age range, and you want them to learn the sport you love, sign them up for camp! More importantly, anybody who plays in the Bay Area Disc leagues is strongly encouraged to tell people in your personal network about the summer camp. Post something to Facebook, or write some good ol' fashion emails.

There is a slightly separate registration sub-system for summer camp, which parents can access here. Detailed information about our summer camps, such as exact dates, times, and locations, is on the summer camp main page.

Need help keeping track of it all? Check for updates and announcements on our Leagues Main Page, and make sure you get connected on our Mailing Lists & Facebook page (see below).

Mailing Lists & Facebook

News List

Our NEWS list is the largest Ultimate-related list in the country (according to an informal search on Yahoogroups), and we use it as the all-in-one Bay Area news channel for upcoming league registrations, tournament announcements, pick-up games, club team try-outs, and other disc related questions or announcements. As an active player in or near the San Francisco area, you cannot afford to not be on this list!

Community List

Our COMMUNITY list is the slightly less moderated, almost-anything-goes channel for local Ultimate players to connect with others. Here, we share news about carpools to tournaments, lost & found, apartments, local bands, gallery openings, and the occasional job posting. This list is also a place to practice the fine art of trash-talking. Posts to this list tend to be more peer-to-peer, by and for Ultimate players only.

This fall, we continue on our ambitious endeavor to consolidate email lists in the area. Please read on to learn more, or if you want to help.
