Ultimate Frisbee NSW

Ultimate Frisbee in NSW is gearing up for a great year with many events, including National events, to be hosted in NSW.

We are busy in all corners of the state with strong presence in Sydney and Newcastle and growing in Bathurst, Dubbo, Wollongong, Byron Bay and Central Coast. If you are after a weekly fix of Ultimate, there are leagues and pick up games all over the state.

Report by Tim Hosking, Tournament Co-ordinator, Dubbo

The "WOTDA Huck!" Tournament (West of the Divide Amalgamated) was a mixed tournament held in Dubbo on Nov 5-6 2011. Mixed teams from clubs located in inland NSW were invited – with three teams plus a pickup team attending.

Final results, Spirit scores and Merit teams from the NSW High School Championships 2012.

On a sunny Sydney day, in the middle of winter the inaugural NSW High School Ultimate Championships were held in Parramatta Park.

Schools had spent the past five months training and qualifying for the event through their local region gala days. Teams travelled from Cronulla, Eastern Suburbs, North Shore, Northern Beaches, Central Coast, Hills District, Blacktown and Penrith...

On August 3rd, 2011 the inaugural NSW Boys School Ultimate Championships will be held at Parramatta Park. A momentous occasion for our sport in Australia as 16 schools will compete for the State title for the first time.

Newcastle, NSW - June 6th 2011

Wandering around Jesmond Park you might be excused for asking what the strange metal and chain structures that have appeared in the ground over the past few weeks are? Standing just under 1.5 meters tall these are the targets for the newly installed 9 hole disc golf course.

Disc Golf if played much like ball golf but with a Frisbee. Players throw from a marked tee area towards the metal target and count how many throws it takes to land in the basket. In Jesmond Park, Hole 1 starts near the Robinson Ave carpark. The course then wraps around the back of the park finishing with a tricky shot onto an island formed by the crisscrossing canals. The trees and hills in the well maintained park provide natural obstacles and variety.

On the 18th of March, just two days after the Parramatta Gala Day, the tour moves to the north west with a visit to Blacktown on Friday 18th March. The Blacktown Gala Day is in it's first year and featured four teams in the boys division, and one team in the girls but no competition on the girls side of the draw.
