Catch up on all of Ultiworld's writing about Club Nationals!
October 13, 2015 by Charlie Eisenhood in Coverage with 1 comments
Every year, the Club National Championships is the most-followed ultimate tournament in the world. With interest so high, we pour out a great deal of content in the lead-up to the tournament, during the tournament itself, and in the post-tournament wrap. It can be so much, in fact, that it is impossible to keep up. So here is a roundup of nearly all of our tournament coverage, from features to reporting to opinion.
Editor’s Note: I particularly recommend reading the profiles and features if you missed them in the run-up to Nationals.
