Toronto, April 12, 2013 – The Toronto Ultimate Club (TUC) is thrilled to announce its new logo! This logo will serve as the official logo for the TUC and replaces the previously used versions.

After several months of soliciting many submissions, requesting revisions from designers, and reviewing the finalists, the recommendation was made by the TUC Board to move forward with a design crafted by Hazel Tenefrancia. The design is simple for branding purposes but it is also modern and professional. It easily conveys the sport of the Ultimate and the fact that we are a Club. The logo is also eye-catching and fun! Plus it was designed by a TUC member. A big thanks goes out to Hazel for all of her time and effort. As well we would like to thank all of the designers who submitted logo concepts to the Club – we had some great options to choose from.

Monday Night Pickup will be regular pull format with just under 2 hours of game time, so basically just like summer league! All players will sign up on the BBS prior to 5pm on game day - the appropriate male and female BBS signup threads will be posted on the website on the prior Friday at 12pm. There will be 2 fields for pickup. We are aiming to host single gender pickup on each field (1 male game, 1 female game), however in the event that we do not have enough of one gender to fulfill a single gender game, we will host at least 1 co-ed game and one other game - to be determined on a case-by-case basis. All players will be required to pay the convenor on-site prior to the game (no pay, no play).

  • Dates: Runs from Monday, April 29 to Monday, May 13 (4 weeks, each week is optional)
  • Times: Games from 7:00pm - 8:55pm, (full games)
  • Location: All games at Varsity Centre. Full sized fields.
  • Format: 7-on-7 co-ed regular pull format. SINGLE GENDER with possibility of Co-ed
  • Level of Play: All levels of play.
  • Cost: $10 per individual and you must pay the on-site convenor prior to game time. All individuals will be placed on a team. Non-TUC members welcome!
