Winter 2026 Goalti Division (Co-Rec)

Registration, Groups, and Waitlist Details

Please check out our FAQ page for more information about our registration process. If you have questions, comments, or concerns, please send us a note at registration@annarborultimate.org.

Timing

Gym reservations are for 8-9:30pm. There will be 10 minutes designated before play begins to set up the goal / cones and warm up; and 10 minutes after for takedown. Games will be played to time and will be 70 minutes, 8:10-9:20pm. Halftime shall be 4 minutes halfway through the scheduled time. Teams each have one timeout per half lasting 60 seconds.

Gender Matching

Players may change on-the-fly during a point. Substitutions are to be made by tagging a teammate while you are both between the two cones marking the substitution zone. The gender ratio may be changed after a score by the team newly on offense. The offense must inform the defense of the change in gender ratio and allow them time to match the gender ratio before resuming play. There will be no stoppage after a point unless the gender ratio is changing.

Rule Modifications

This division will play using the latest rule set from USA Goaltimate besides any changes listed here. Please see their rules page for more information.

Other Details

As with all ultimate games, the emphasis in this league will be on high spirit, great exercise, and fun for both new and experienced players. Play hard, but play nice. And remember, violence, be it physical or verbal, is never acceptable and will get you suspended.

• Games are played with 5 players on each side, but it is better to get a game started with 4s than to wait for full 5s if players are still arriving.
• Games will end by reaching the end of our gym reservation. If playing to a time cap, games can end mid-point. It is up to the game captains to call last point and call the point off if it is not finished in time. When your game time is up, please take any huddles off the field so the next group can start. This is especially important if the next group is not Ann Arbor Ultimate-related.
• Bring white and team-colored (or a dark if you cannot match your team color) jerseys/shirts, water, and gym shoes.
• Please clean up after yourselves. When in doubt, leave the field looking better than you found it.
• Cheer for opponents, even on competitive nights. This can be a quick "great game!", it can be a song with modified lyrics, it can be a haiku, an interpretive dance, or a massive game of rock paper scissors. There are a dozen very fun spirit games that require no creativity or performance pressure. I've seen all of these done quite well. Show good spirit, this is ultimate.
• There is no alcohol allowed on or near the fields.

Most of all, have fun! Any questions, comments, or concerns can be directed to your captains, or to league organizers by emailing directors@annarborultimate.org. If you would prefer to anonymously report a situation, please use our Anonymous Grievance/Feedback Form

Captaining

Ann Arbor Ultimate would not be possible if not for our volunteer captains! Each season, Ann Arbor Ultimate relies on this group to facilitate safe, spirited ultimate and be our eyes and ears on the field. Captains are not expected to be the most experienced, skilled, or knowledgable players; instead we look for players who are enthusiastic about our community and want to give back. To learn more, check out our frequently asked questions page.

To be considered, put a 1 or 2 for the "Would you like to captain this division?" question during registration. If selected, the Captains Committee will be in touch with an invite to our seasonal captains meeting. Upon fulfilling their duties at the end of the season, captains receive compensation of $5 per game.
