Ultimate frisbee (or ultimate disc) is a high energy, non-contact team sport. It combines elements of many different sports including soccer, basketball, and football. Ultimate is played on a rectangular shaped field with end zones shaped like football end zones. Each team consists of seven players. The disc is passed from teammate to teammate until somebody catches the disc in the end zone for a score.
The Valley of the Sun Ultimate Association (VOTS) organizes adult leagues (18 and up, ages 16-17 with parental waiver) with two primary goals in mind:

No! All players sign up as individuals and will be drafted on to a team within their appropriate division.
Woman-matching players new to ultimate are guaranteed to be placed on a team with one person they ask for.
Most baggage will be honored with the possible exception of paired club players. All baggage approvals will be left to the discretion of the league director. Please note, baggage of more than one person might be hard to accommodate and lead to unbalanced teams.
For 16 teams, initial player cap is 176 man-matching players, 80 woman-matching players. A wait list will be instituted *before* these caps are met to avoid over-filling or if one side of the registration (man-matching or woman-matching) out-paces the other. If registration switches to a wait list, please, still sign up for league.
Mixed teams will have a man-matching captain and a woman-matching captain.
