Thanks for doing your thing, ultimate Twitter. It’s been a blast watching so many of you try so hard to make this list. Even if you didn’t make it, I’m sure your tweet was great — maybe it just wasn’t the best fit here. To everyone who followed along, thanks for being part of our special community.
“I was rushing the field every time. I was waiting for it.”
— Fury Ultimate (@furyultimate) October 25, 2021
San Francisco Fury won the national championship in the women’s division. Teams often shout “wait for it,” after a score because rushing the field before the observer signals that a goal is in could result in a team misconduct penalty.

This season was a unique one for New York men’s players. New York Empire played this season missing many former players due to New York PoNY’s increased time commitments this season. PoNY missed some Empire players who could not or did not want to make that level of commitment (some even who chose to play for Raleigh Ring of Fire), and may have benefited from their appearance on the field.
Great Lakes Regionals was harder than making Worlds tbh

Hilarious that the award money for winning nationals is less than the USAU membership fees of a single team…. Like just stop bothering with the big check! So stupid!

If you’re an elite club ultimate player from Minnesota and you want to win a championship, apparently all you have to do is leave…
