MIDWEST ULTIMATE ACADEMY
COMMITTED TO MAKING ULTIMATE FRISBEE ACCESSIBLE AND UNFORGETTABLE
Why Ultimate?
Ultimate is one of the fastest-growing sports in the country, and colleges are taking notice! Many universities now have competitive Ultimate programs, and some are even offering scholarships to top players. That means your child’s love for the game could open doors to exciting opportunities in the future.
Ultimate Frisbee is more than just a game—it’s a fast-paced, teamwork-driven sport that teaches leadership, confidence, and sportsmanship in a positive, supportive environment.
Unlike many traditional sports, Ultimate is self-officiated, helping kids develop accountability, conflict resolution skills, and respect for others—lessons that go far beyond the field. Plus, it’s an incredible way to stay active, make friends, and have fun!
Whether they’re looking for a lifelong passion or a great way to cross-train for other sports, Ultimate Frisbee is a dynamic, high-energy sport that’s shaping the future of athletics. Give your child the chance to be part of this movement and watch them thrive!
Midwest Ultimate Academy: Expanding Access, Elevating Talent
Ultimate Frisbee has shaped the mission of this organization: to make the sport truly inclusive and accessible. Ultimate is one of the fastest-growing sports in the world, blending the agility of soccer, the aerial excitement of football, and a unique self-officiated system that fosters integrity and sportsmanship. Despite its affordability—requiring only a disc and open space—significant barriers prevent low-income athletes from participating at a competitive level. As the sport continues to grow, we must ensure that its development reflects the full diversity of the communities it seeks to engage.
We are committed to making ultimate accessible and inclusive. We strongly believe that everyone should be able to play ultimate in a welcoming and kind environment and it is at the forefront of our coaches’ minds. Full and Partial Scholarships are available so please do not at any point hesitate to reach out to midwestultimateacademy@gmail.com. We want everyone with an interest in our sport an opportunity to play and feel welcomed 🙂
