General League Info

The TUC Summer Leagues will start the week of May 14th and will run through to Sep 1st.  

Every day of the week is treated as a separate league and on each weeknight ther are seperate divisions.  We will do our best to locate games in the areas described, with Yonge Street acting as the general dividing line between East and West. All Competitive Division games will be played in a set location(s) throughout the City.

Rules regarding gameplay can be found on the rules page.  Team captains must assist in enforcing the rules. Please abide by the Spirit of the Game when dealing with this (and any other game) issue. For the 2023 summer season, all league games will be 7-on-7 Mixed, (4:3 OR 3:4 gender ratio - ENDZONE CHOOSES Ratio) with the game ending at a set determined time by the captains or sun-down. 

NOTE ON GENDER EQUITY: TUC is committed to advancing gender equity within our community to ensure Ultimate is a space for participants of ALL genders. Sport has traditionally operated with a gender binary framework - Co-ed divisions, Women's Divisions and Men's Divisions. We at TUC understand and recognize that gender is a spectrum, and we want participants with diverse genders to feel welcomed and included. For clarity, TUC wants to remind all participants of the gender roster categories for our leagues for the Summer 2023 season:

  • Woman/Female Roster Designation = Woman, Non-Binary and Two-Spirit: may include women (cis and trans), non-binary players, and two-spirit players.
  • Open Roster Designation = Open, Non-Binary and Two-Spirit: may include men (cis and trans), women (cis and trans), non-binary players, and two-spirit players.

The 2023 Summer League Captains' Meeting(s) will be in person the week of May 8th at Monarch Park Stadium.  Details will be released to Team Captains on April 30th.

League Contacts: The TUC conveners for the 2023 Summer League will be announced soon. General questions about leagues should be addressed to the convener listed for the league in question. However, in order to reduce the flood of emails to the convener, if you are a player and have a question about TUC or the league, please ask your team captain first or contact the appropriate person as listed on the TUC contacts page. Your team captain is your first point of contact with TUC when it comes to administrative matters.

Registration for Summer Leagues will open March 27th, 2023.

The cost for team registration is $2,000 based on the 15-week season we are able to offer.

Individual registration (for those who want to register as a solo player) is setup so that TUC can match you with a team in need of additional players, or a HAT team will be created based on player preferences.  You can also check out our matchmaker service to connect with teams looking for players.

If you have any questions, contact adults@tuc.org.

All players must be valid TUC members. If you possess a 2023/2024 membership that was valid for April 2023 - March 2024 then you must acquire a new membership in order to play in ANY Summer Leagues (league fees still apply). If you are joining the Club in the Summer we offer an Introductory membership for brand new TUC members, which runs through to March 31, 2024. To help introduce new players to Ultimate and to accommodate visitors from out-of-town, there are monthly membership options available. All players must sign the waiver of liability form before stepping on the field. In order to enforce these stipulations, we rely heavily on the honour system and on our team captains. Please abide by the Spirit of the Game when dealing with this (and any other game) issue.

For more information on becoming a TUC member, visit our Becoming a Member page. For assistance with registering a team or as an individual, see our How to Register page.

* Individual Player Registration *

Players will provide information and playing preferences through the registration questionnaire. The questionnaire will help us to either match the individual player with a team or create a HAT team. It is not guaranteed that we will be able to match each player with a team or create a HAT team.

​NOTE:  This registration is designed to collect information from you that will be used to either: match you with a team looking to take on additional players or create a new team. Generally speaking, female-matching players are in higher demand on league and hat teams. While there is no guarantee of getting on a team, open players who sign up with a female-matching partner will be more likely to find a spot on a team. Priority will also be given to players who are joining the league for the first time.  Note: It is not guaranteed that we will be able to match you with a team or be able to create a new team. In the event we are not able to get you on a team for the summer season, any league fees and/or membership fees will be refunded.

Spirit, Safety & Fields

Spirit of the Game is an integral part of Ultimate. In order to encourage teams to play with Spirit, we are requiring all teams to submit a Spirit score as well as a game score after each game. It is the responsibility of both team captains to submit a spirit score for the other team after every game.

In the interest of safety, the TUC strongly discourages games from taking place on grass fields during poor weather or on soggy fields. If the weather becomes severe during your game (i.e. thunderstorms), be sure to follow TUC's Bad Weather Policy. Metal cleats are not allowed under any circumstances. Plastic/rubber cleats are allowed at Monarch Park Stadium, Lamport Stadium, UCC, and Lakeshore Collegiate Dome, but NOT at the Downsview Hangar. Running shoes or turf shoes at the Hangar only, absolutely no cleats there! Foot blocks are not allowed except with the explicit prior agreement of both team captains. Any foot block, attempted or successful, should be treated as a foul.

Since field space is difficult to find, the TUC is always concerned about the possibility of losing currently permitted fields. Permits can be revoked if teams engage in prohibited activities or as the result of complaints from neighbourhood groups. Therefore, we remind everyone of the following policies:

  • The consumption of alcohol and recreational drugs is NOT allowed at the fields, whether before, during or after a game. If you wish to engage in such activities, please do so in the privacy of your own home.
  • Smoking Ban Bylaw: It is illegal to smoke tobacco within 9 meters of sports fields. 
  • Use Spirit when dealing with other users of the parks. This means being polite to the people who inadvertently stray onto the field during your game. Also, bring the permit with you to your game to head off conflict with other users of the field.
  • Use common sense and be considerate of the neighbours. This means that you do not pee in the bushes, against the side of a house or in the middle of the field. Also, do not block driveways with your car.
  • If problems arise with fields, such as poor condition or conflict with other groups (e.g. soccer), please bring them to the attention of the league convenor and the fields coordinator. Do not take it upon yourself to solve the problem.
