Five Ultimate’s goal is to grow ultimate at all levels and in all countries. In many places where ultimate is still developing there is a dire need for discs, old or new. To answer these needs, Five has founded the Discs for Development program.

At every tournament Five attends, they’re inviting players, spectators, coaches, and organizers to donate discs so that they can channel them to developing ultimate programs around the world. Five is making sure the discs are put to good use, and highlighting the beneficiary programs on their website for all to see. They hope to make the worldwide ultimate community stronger, and look forward to seeing the impact a few discs can have on ultimate programs around the world. Ultimate players are a unique breed of fantastic people–let’s spread our love to all reaches of the globe!

Please bring discs to donate! If you’ve got a slightly warped practice disc, a new one from a tournament you’d rather not remember, or just one that has seen better days, bring it by the Five Ultimate booth and drop it into the Discs for Development bin. You’ll be able to see the impact your disc has on the worldwide ultimate community at www.FiveUltimate.com/TheSport/DiscsforDevelopment.

Suns out, guns out. When that glorious orb launches its cancerous rays, Ocean Potion has got your back, face and limbs. Free lotion will be available at tournament central.

Arrrr!!!! Experience healthy snacking with a treasure trove of flavorlicious samples from Pirate’s Booty.
