Description:

This is an experimental league designed both to A) meet the needs of girls' schools that want to play youth ultimate, and B) promote girls' ultimate at the middle school level.

Heather Ann Brauer is your 2009 League Coordinator.  You may contact her at the email address listed at the top of this page.

Games will be on weekday afternoons/evenings.  Because the league was developed after field reservations were made for the spring, teams who register need to be able to both A) host games at their own fields, and B) travel to other teams' fields.  Teams that are able to do just one of these things may also register, but they might not be able to play as many games as the other teams during the season.

The League Coordinator will work with team coaches to facilitate the scheduling of games. 

Important Dates:

  • January 28: Registration Opens.
  • February 11: Registration closes. League fees due.
  • February 20: Schedule announced.
  • March 16: First games.
  • May 15: End of regular season.

There may be playoffs, depending on teams' interest and field availability. 

This league is free for schools that have a team in the Co-Ed Middle School Spring League.  The league fee is $50 for teams that are not playing in the Co-Ed League.
