It’s back! #TheGame has returned for the 2026 Club National Championships. But this year, we have made some pretty big changes in the structure. The core game should mostly remain the same: pick the teams who are going to win. We are also partnering with Unbenchable to present this year’s contest, providing a great user experience and live updates.
Entering is easy. Pick five teams – one Favorite, two Contenders, and one Underdog, and one additional Bonus team from any tier – and then watch your teams go out and get wins, and collect the points. The big change this year is who your team beats matters. In addition to the standard scoring for getting a win, a win over a Favorite is worth 15 bounty points, beating a Contender is worth 10 bounty points, and topping an Underdog is worth 5 bounty points. But your team’s tier matters, too! Underdogs get 3x as many bounty points, while Contenders gets 2x, and Favorites get 1x.
For example: an Underdog beats a Contender in pool play. They get 10 points for a pool play, 10 bounty points for beating a Contender, and we multiply their bounty points by 3x. 10 + (10 x 3) = 40 points for the win.
Don’t forget to make your extra point picks at the end. Make the right picks and you could find yourself taking home some of our fabulous prizes.

Fantasy Frisbee

Fantasy ultimate is back for the 2026 Nationals Championships! It is even more fun watching and following along with Nationals when you have a little bit of pride on the line, especially with individual players and events to root for.
We are partnering with Fantasy Frisbee to provide you a robust, fun, easy to use fantasy experience. Created by Josh Yuan and Liam Kreiss, Fantasy Frisbee launched in 2024 with competitions for the D-I College Championships, and have since run events featuring the WUL, PUL, UFA, and USA Ultimate competition. Join the public leagues, where you can beat the crowd to win Ultiworld prizes, Ultiworld leagues for bragging rights in the Discord, or create your own league with your friends and teammates.
Each division has a separate competition to dominate in. And it’s all free.
Pick your friends, your rivals, your league teammates, your regional reps, your fan favorites, or just the unsung heroes that’ll make you look like a true ball-knower.
Join our Deep Look Leagues, where you can win a prize and a show shout out. There’s no budget, but you cannot pick more than one player from a team. (And in Mixed Division, please pick a 4/3 lineup or be shamed.)
