Description
Ultimate Frisbee is a fast-paced, team-oriented sport that combines the agility of soccer, the strategy of football, and the spirit of fair play. Played with a flying disc, it challenges your speed, endurance, and teamwork while keeping the game fun and inclusive. Whether you’re sprinting for a catch, throwing precision passes, or strategizing with your team, Ultimate Frisbee offers an exhilarating way to stay active and connected.
Our Ultimate Frisbee Club welcomes players of all skill levels — from beginners learning the basics to experienced athletes competing at higher levels. We organise regular training sessions, casual games, and competitive matches designed to build skills and foster a strong, supportive community. More than just a sport, we’re a vibrant team united by passion, respect, and the love of the game. Grab a disc — it’s more than Ultimate Frisbee, it’s a lifestyle.

About Us
Founded in 2016, the LJMU Ultimate Frisbee Club has quickly grown in both size and success. We pride ourselves on being a welcoming and inclusive team, offering students the chance to try a fun, fast-paced sport that many haven’t experienced before. Whether you're completely new to Ultimate or already know the game, our club is a great place to learn, compete, and make new friends. We take part in indoor weekend tournaments and outdoor BUCS league fixtures on Wednesdays, and we’re continuing to expand. This year, we're aiming to grow even more, with the goal of forming a women's team to compete at regionals and continuing our involvement in beginners’ tournaments, fun fixtures, and varsity events.
Key Information
We train twice a week with one indoor and one outdoor session, giving members a chance to develop skills in both formats of the game. In addition to weekly BUCS fixtures on Wednesdays, we also compete in various weekend tournaments across the country. Our club is designed to accommodate all types of players, from casual participants to those eager to represent LJMU at regional and national competitions. On top of training and matches, we also run regular socials throughout each semester, creating plenty of opportunities to bond with teammates and make lasting connections beyond the pitch.
Why Us?
Ultimate Frisbee is a brilliant way to meet new people, stay active, and try something totally new during your time at university. Most of our players start with little or no experience, so you’ll be learning alongside others in the same position. Our club is open to all genders and all ability levels, and we cater to both casual and competitive players. Whether you want to try a new sport just for fun or aim to play at a high level, you’ll find your place with us. With a mix of competitive fixtures, fun tournaments, and unforgettable socials, there’s always something to get involved in.
