The Ultimate Frisbee Association (UFA), formerly the American Ultimate Disc League (AUDL), is a professional[1][2] ultimate disc league that consists of 24 teams divided between the South, Central, East, and West divisions. The UFA is located in North America. Each UFA season has 12 regular season games which run from April to July. Following the conclusion of the regular season, the top three teams from every division advance to the playoffs, a single elimination tournament that culminates in a final four style showcase known as the UFA Championship Weekend,[3] which is contested in late August over two days.
The UFA was founded in 2012 as the American Ultimate Disc League (AUDL) ,[4] before renaming itself the Ultimate Frisbee Association for the 2024 season.[5]
The New York Empire hold the most championships with 3 titles. They are also the reigning champions after defeating the Salt Lake Shred in the AUDL Championship Game at Championship Weekend 12.
